Protect Members name in commenting
Hi,
i’m a newbie, now testing txp, everything’s ok, but i have a few questions:
When commenting, how could i prevent non-registered users
to use the same name as a registered one?
Is there an option (or plugin) that allows the registered members to automatically log in to comment (like as wordpress?)

I don’t believe one exists.
It could be possible to create a mod/hack to do this, but not a plugin. The reason being that there is no way for plugins to interrupt existing functions in the manner required.

Plugins are loaded before saveComment() is called. A plugin could jump in before then and modify $_POST before Textpattern does anything with it.

How would you modify it, just re-assign the name?

Well I had thought the idea was to stop the commenting process and say “pick a different name” or something.

You can unset the submit, and activate preview by manipulating $_POST.
If you further set a state and add some relating conditionals in the comment form you can display a message.
