# HTTPS 405 Method Not Allowed

 * I installed your plugin and it’s great to suppress the email and web site fields.
   When I tried to make the name field required, the web site has problems. Hit 
   submit on a comment without filling in the name, then a white page tells visitor
   they must fill in required fields. Then, pressing return to previous page, visitor
   is shown **HTTPS 405 Method Not Allowed** on a white screen. When I deactivate
   your plugin, the HTTPS 405 Method Not Allowed error goes away. Please help if
   you can. I like your plugin would be great if I can use it.

 * Hi tronkin,
 * thanks for reaching out about this.
 * Please send me more information on how I can reproduce this on a blank WordPress
   installation. I am not promising anything, since this sounds like custom code,
   but am curious enough to test it, if the setup process is simple.
 * Thanks,
   Thomas

 * How did you do that? By enabling the “Comment author must fill out name and email”
   option in core?

 * Hi tronkin,
 * I tried to reproduce the setup.
 * If I understand correctly, you have the “Comment author must fill out name and
   email” option in WordPress core combined with the “remove email field” setting
   in my ACF plugin. Is that right?
 * I cannot reproduce a white screen like that. Only a warning that the email is
   required. Maybe, your theme or one of the plugins, routes the comment form submission
   differently.
 * Anyway, I fear I will be unable to make this combination work. You’d need to 
   disable the option that requires the email in WordPress core.
 * Good luck!
   Thomas
