When anonymous users are allowed to post comments, it looks like an email address is required. Is there a reason for this? Can that requirement be turned off?

Of course... thanks for pointing that out to me.

I need to switch off this requirement. Only Name must be required for anonymous users comment post. How I can delete email, website and the box "notify me" in the post comment page?

I've try to modify the ucPostComment.ascx but nothing change!

Thanks

Hi, I've changed PostComment.ascx but I receive Object reference not set to an instance of an object. You can see the modified PostComment.ascx below
