My sister, who is not yet on Wizzley, wanted to comment today on my new page and she cannot figure out how to do it.........of course on my page, it shows my photo and the gray box.   but what does a non-member see?

Look at the settings in your comment modules, Joan. If you have checked "Only logged-in users can comment", the outside guests can't leave a comment.

If you want to see your articles just like an outsider would see them, simply log out of your account.

Unless you specifically exclude comments from users which are not logged in, any visitor will be able to comment on your page. They will see 

- a text field to enter their comment

- a field to enter their name

- a field to enter their email address (required, but not visible to others)

- an optional field to enter their website link

In addition, they can check a box whether or not they want to receive email notifications of follow-up comments.

The avatar will be the gray default one, unless the commenter's email address is associated with a gravatar (I think, may have to check if this is actually true)

I realized it's a rerun.   Frown
