Hi,

When a authenticated user quotes a comment or node, their new comment containing the quote gets posted as Anonymous. For example, When authenticated User A quotes a comment or node made by authenticated User B, the post says "Submitted by Anonymous" even though they are logged in. This does not occur in when previewing a comment, only when the comment is published.

I sincerely appreciate any assistance you can provide.

Many thanks,

Shane.

The Submtted by Anonymous bit is handled by the Comment module. Does it stop happening if the Quote module is disabled?

Hi,

Yes, I noticed that this was related to the core comment module. I was able to fix it by setting comments to include the username of the comment author. This way, quotes automatically include the author's name.

I think the initial problem was caused by the fact that I am using a few modules that 'modify' standard comments, and this cocktail of modules caused some internal conflicts. By configuring comments to include the authors name, this resolves the issue with quotes. I have assigned this issue to fixed.

I think this is a great module that greatly enhances user comments. Many thanks for sharing it.

Kind regards,

Shane.
