    Resolution: Not a Problem

Hi Juergen, after checking our current commenting system I forgot that browsers 
already store the username and email from previous comments; as soon as I type 
in "G" my full name appears, same with the email.  So it's not the case that a 
blog writer needs to keep manually typing in this info with every comment as I 
had thought, which had prompted me to reopen this issue.  Another problem with 
hardcoding this info in every comment field is that the blog owner may get the 
erroneous impression that Roller is prepopulating this same info for every blog 
reader, i.e., all readers to my blog will see my name and email address in 
those fields.  So I'm going to keep Roller as-is without this change.

I understand for your Intranet situation you may need to do some template 
customizations as suggested earlier, the Roller User mailing list is available 
to help you here.

>          Components: Comments
>    Affects Versions: 5.1

>            Priority: Minor

> Update (Glen): For logged-in bloggers, pre-populate the name and email fields 
> with the ScreenName and Email values of the User object.  Make these fields 
> writable, however, should someone want to modify their values or if it's 
> someone else commenting.  Retain the math question to guard against spammers 
> registering and then flooding blog entries with comments.
> Was (original poster Juergen):  For logged-in users Roller knows name and 
> email. So the corresponding fields in comments should be auto-filled and 
> maybe even non-editable.  Also the "Please answer this simple math question" 
> should be gone for logged-in users.
