Hi,

im searching for a new comments and forum module or some extesion which creates field for name and email of anonymous users. That means when a page visitor doesnt have an account and wants to post a comment or to a forum discussion, he enters his name and the name will be used as the comment author.

In fact I need a forum for anonymous users and if everyone would be anonymous then the users couldnt have any conversation, because they actually wouldnt know with whom they talk.

I hope its not too messy so you ll get my point.

Regards,
Mike

Go into Administer -> Content Management -> Content Types.

Click "edit" the content type that you have comments enabled for, for example the Story type. If you scroll down, you'll see Comment Settings. Click on that and you can select that Anonymous users must always leave a name and email address.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, you can't. You can try to add cck field for name into you forum topic node type.

Please have a look to the Anonymous Posting module http://drupal.org/project/anonymous_posting which allow anonymous users to fill their contact informations just like for comments.
