Error page when unregistered user comments. (4 posts)

    I am going to enable registered user comments only. However when a non-regsitered user tries to comment, they get an error message.

    Is there any way I can direct them to an alternative page?

    I should note, this is not for a WordPress.org hosted site (but I am using WordPress on my host for the blog).

    Thank you in advance!

    if your theme is written properly, unregistered users shouldnt even see the comment form, thus there isnt an error.

    in other words, what you are experiencing is a consequence of a poorly written theme, and rather than direct them to an alternative page, you probably ought to work on fixing whatever theme you are using.

    Hmm.. I guess that must be in the wp-comments.php file? I'll have a closer look at my code now that you've given me an area to look. Much appreciated!
