Sorry if the answer is painfully obvious, but is it possible to set JoomlaComment to allow guests to view existing comments but not be able to post until they register? I see this as an excellent way to get people interested, and to entice people to register, but still be able to mitigate comment spam. Please let me know else I will have to attempt to hack this solution myself.

And thank you for investing your time and expertise in bringing this project back. :kiss: JoomlaComment is really the ONLY "free" alternative to the commercial bloat that is JomComment (not that JomComment doesn't have some good things about it). O, and joomla.org still has JoomlaComment 3.25 rather than 3.26.

Wow, sorry, stupid question. I spent an hour and a half on this and then realized the problem was that I HAD NO COMMENTS on the page i was testing with, and if I had, the comment section wouldn't close down so dramatically when I turn on

Content Settings > Security > Only registered > Yes (Only registered users can write comments.)

to make it work.
