Hello, after installing MT and importing old entries I need to configure the system. The first step is to make comments totally free (no login and registration needed).
At the configuration > responses tab I have checked the "anybody" radio button. Then, I have rebuild the site. After that, I am suposed to get a visible comment form in the individual entries pages. However, the form is not visible and a login is required to send comments.
¿Why isn't it working? I think it has to be easy, but I can't find the solution. Could you please help me?
Thank you in advance.
Hi Aitor,
The setting you've made is about displaying the comments, not about the commenting form.
You haven't mentioned to me what version of movable type you are running.
I am going to present below the right place where to set what you want to set for movable type v4.37 and movable type v5.12.
1) movable type v4.37
Go to:
Preferences -> Registration
And check the box:
"Anonymous Comments"
Then click "Save Changes" and make sure you rebuild your index templates, or at least the javascript one.
2) movable type v5.12
Go to:
Settings -> Registration
And check the box:
"Allow comments from anonymous or unauthenticated users."
Then click "Save Changes" and make sure you rebuild your index templates, or at least the javascript one.
Kind Regards,
Mihai Bocsaru

Hi again, Mihai!
Thank you very much. The problem was solved with your guide and now works perfectly. Sorry about the MT version omission (was v5.12)
Regards.
Aitor Méndez.
