 * I recently discovered that guests can no more comment on my site. I had to turn
   of WpDiscuz for this to work, but I really like WpDiscuz and want to turn it 
   on again.
 * There was an earlier thread on this topic about this being an issue with some
   plugin, which one could it be in that case? At the moment I have the following
   plugins activated:
 * Akismet
 * Cartpauj Register Captcha
 * Classic Editor
 * GDPR
 * Google XML Sitemaps
 * Jetpack
 * Modern Footnotes
 * Better recent comments
 * Post Character Count Admin
 * Really Simple SSR
 * Safe Redirect Manager
 * Slimstat Analytics
 * TablePress
 * Tesla Login Customizer
 * WP Hide post
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fguests-cannot-comment%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@kallekn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kallekn/),
 * We don’t see the wpDiscuz active on your website. Please reactivate the plugin
   and let us know, so we’ll be able to check the issue.

 * Thank you for your rapid response. I had to deactivate the plugin to allow guest
   comments. I have now activated it.

 * Please navigate to Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Forms admin page. Edit the form (if
   nothing is changed, it should be called “Default Form”), set “Yes” value for 
   the “Allow guests to comment” option, save it, delete all caches and check again.

 * Thank you! I didn’t realize this needs to be done here, not only in WP settings.
