Yes. Some of that functionality may not be part of the base system but can be achieved with existing plugins.
Hi dartiss
Thank you for the reply, appreciate it
I have managed to sort the requirements 1, 2, 3 and 4
just got two little requirements if you a way to do it or know of a plugin
on the comment form where its got name, can that be changed to nickname so the users real name is not used
also can the author post blog articles from the admin side be anonymous as the client would like their name to be anonymous?
Re the comments, yes – it depends what comment system you use but, yes, this can be corrected.
As for the post author, you can choose how user names are shown on the blog or, alternatively, you can modify your theme to simply not output the author.
I am using the following wordpress plugin for the comments
https://gist.github.com/toscho/4138835
I found a post where the authors name can be hidden using css so will try that
Just a update, I have hidden the authors name using CSS
If possible just need to change name to nickname or username if anyone knows how to
Head into the admin and select Users – the option to how to display names is selectable for each user.
Thank you dartiss, have sorted that side of it and also managed to change the label on the comment form using this link which had useful info and coding on how to do it
Hope it helps others out
