I created a site with a blog and a forum all under the same installation of MT: http://takezer0.com
The forum requires registration, but the main blog allows anonymous comments.
When you log in to the forum and leave a comment, it works fine. But if AFTER logging in you go to the main blog and leave a comment, you are given a "Comment Pending" message (which never appears otherwise; comments are set to accept form anyone, no confirmation page, and registration not allowed), and the comment NEVER appears in the pending or published comment queue in the admin tool. If you log out of the forum, you can comment normally on the main blog.
Running MT 4.23. Very confusing. Very buggy.
Anyone have any ideas?
Reported on Movable Type 4.2
Verify that you enabled "accept comments from anyone" in the preferences on the blog(s) that accept anonymous comments. Also, you may want to look into using this configuration directive: http://www.movabletype.org/documentation/appendices/config-directives/singlecommunity.html
Set.
Still doing the same thing. Thanks for the recommendation, though.
