Fauna Theme-Comments Section Not Showing Plugins Unless User Is Logged In.

I know this isn’t a plugin issue (the more smilies plugin) because it works in all of my other themes. If a user is not a logged in user-he or she cannot view any plugins in the comment area. Once I am logged in, I can view the smilies and I am able to click—the smilies do show up in posts. Any ideas? The way the comments templates are set up it is too confusing to find exactly where the problem is-I’ve left a comment on the author’s site with no response. I think it may have to do with a few lines of code which checks to see if the commenter is a registered user-but I’m at a loss as to how to change this.
