eggBlog - Guest Comments
posted by Mark @ 1:23pm, Wednesday 22 July 2009.
The Blog software I have chosen to use for the articles section is called eggBlog and its pretty good especially as its on an open source licence which means I can make any changes to it that I require.
I have already made various theme changes to integrate it with this site, but until now I have not done much to change its operation.
One of the limitations it has is that comments can only be posted by registered users. I have managed to modify the code and integrate reCaptcha (my chosen Captcha solution) with the comment posting code so now if you are not logged in you can still comment on posts as a Guest you just have to complete the Captcha.
For any registered users, if you are logged in it will work as normal and you will NOT have to complete the Captcha.
If anyone would like the source code just let me know, you never know I may even get around to posting it in the Downloads section.
For more information about Captcha's there is a great Wikipedia page all about them here.

I would love to have a look , tweak a few times but fail - sensing some aids here. So I will check your Downloads section soon . Bye
