I want everyone - not just members - to be able to comment on my blog. How do I enable this?

Thanks.

You can allow Anonymous Comments by accessing the control panel at Settings & Security > Publishing Defaults > Advanced >Anonymous Comments.

Using Anonymous Comments means that your visitors do not need to create a Reader Account and login to your blog to post a comment. We do not recommend it however as it means that spammers are much more likely to target your blog and to post comment spam to your blog.

Thanks, John. I'll have to think about it some more. I guess if people really want to comment, they'll take the time to register.
I think I'm gonna like it here. Very Happy

You will, Donna. As you've seen, you get real and helpful answers on this board. I'm certainly working on the principle that if people want to make a worthwhile comment, registering is a piece of cake.
