Hi there!
Is there any way to allow users posting a "drupal comment" (using Drupal commenting system) without creating an account in the site?
I mean, something like:
The comment form gets the information from the logged in FB user and post the comment as anonymous but adds the name and picture from the FB account.
Something like the Gravatar module, that lets people every time they post something using their registered gravatar email, to "get" the name and picture.

Or something like the huffingtonpost.co.uk site, where you can write down and post it just using your FB credentials... without registering to the site.

Thanks for your help!

The comment module creates a permission, and you can edit permission so that anonymous users can post.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I know that, but what I´m looking for is a way to post a drupal comment using the anonymous user´s name, email and picture... while remaining anonymous.

I think it'll show the name and picture next to the comment. If you want to save email, I'd recommend creating a whole user account.

Hi again!
Thanks for your reply. I´ve checked the perms and anon users can post messages.
I´ve installed this module, and added my FB app to it.
I´ve make available for anon users the "Facebook Connect block", so they can log in using their facebook account, and the "I like" block, so they can "like" my content using their accounts.
I didn´t allow users to create accounts to the site using their FB accounts.

I´ve tried this:
- Connect to FB using the FB Connect block. Successful. It connects and the block shows my BF profile image.
- "Like" my content. Successful. I can like (or unlike) the content.
- When the I log in for the first time FB tells the user that the app is asking for my name, picture and email. I just want the email to be posted inside the "email" field that´s inside the comment form.
- Post Comments as a FB user. Nope. This is what I cannot do.

When I get connected to my FB account, it appers my personal data inside that "Facebook Connect" block, but the Comments form still shows the comment fields (name, email) like an anon user. I mean the comments form is exactly the same when I´m logged in with my FB account or when I´m not logged in.

I think that´s happening because I won´t allow people to register to my site, so Drupal interprets that the user is an anonymous. And then I´m at #1 in this issue queue again: Is there a way to do that? Am I missing something?

Thanks again!!!

An example of whet I mean:

http://naveenium.com/stream/being-in-the-right-place

I´ve read that and when I got to the comments form, I was already signed in with my facebook account. But I didn´t registered to the site.
I know that site is using disqus, but the thing is that I don´t want to use disqus.
