 * Hello,
 * I would like people to be able to comment with their social network accounts,
   but without creating or having a user in my WordPress… I really do not want more
   users in my WordPress (Look: [Postmatic Social Commenting](https://wordpress.org/plugins/postmatic-social-commenting/)).

   is the next intermediate release planned on upcoming Monday).
 * Which will includes likes and a few small bug fixes and features.
 * I will close this topic once it is implemented.

 * Alex,
 * We have discussed this feature with the team and it requires to bypass some of
   the security in WordPress. I believe this is not good decision, as it can bring
   into problems you and other blog owners.
 * **I thought of another way of handling this:**
    – plugin will have option to 
   define default role assigned to the user authorized via social network. There
   are currently two of them: one is the “Subscribed” (default from WordPress) and
   one custom from the plugin “Social Subscriber” – later you may search through
   users and find with role you defined in “Users” page
 * **Why it is better to keep user registered in the system:**
    – in the a few next
   releases we might introduce nice analytics over the users on your blog – you 
   may contact any of the users who registered on your site – and it can be used
   to send info about your products, new blog posts, etc – and certainly, users 
   are the ones that help blogs to grow
 * What do you think about it?

 * Здравствуйте. Подскажите, пожалуйста, не могу понять, где найти данные для этих
   пунктов для подключения соцсетей в плагине:
    Введите ID приложения. Его вы можете
   найти на странице “Мои приложения”. Введите защищенный ключ. Его вы можете найти
   на странице “Мои приложения”.
