 * Hi everyone,
 * I have a question about the setting ‘Comment author must fill out name and e-
   mail’ in WordPress.
 * I want to require my visitors to fill out their name, but I don’t want to require
   them to fill out their e-mail.
 * How can I do this?
 * Thank you!

 * Unfortunately, I still haven’t found a solution. There are many people who don’t
   fill out there names on my weblog. I want to require them to fill out their names,
   but not their e-mails.
 * Is there anyone who can help me with this? Thanks!
