 * After installing your plugin, I can go my Question page and create ask new questions,
   then I can make answers, however when I attempt to make a comment in reply I 
   always get a 403 Forbidden error. I can’t determine the problem after going through
   the settings.
 * Please help

 * Hi,
    I have checked on our demo and the plugin still works fine. Please check
   and disable all the plugin to check this issue. Maybe, the plugin conflicting
   with another plugin on your site.

 * Hi,
 * I was attempting to solve this, I deactivated the other plugins I was using, 
   bbPress, Events Manager, and WP Document Revisions and that did not resolve the
   issue.
 * Next under My Site|Settings|Discussion I turned off “Allow readers to leave comments
   using their WordPress.com, Twitter, Facebook, or Google+ accounts”, “Comment 
   author must fill out name and email” and “Users must be registered and logged
   in to comment”
 * Next under WPAdmin|Questions|Settings|Permissions I turned on Post rights to 
   anonymous users.
 * Now if I make a comment while logged in with a WordPress account it will work
   and below the comment box it says it will use my logged in account. For an anonymous
   users it will prompt for email and name but it works.
 * How do I configure the plugin to allow anonymous users to make a comment without
   having to enter an email address and name?
 * Thank you.
    Dennis
