Only eMembers can comment (no wordpress user detection)

[SanDiegoWebGuy]

I want to have comments only available to emember users, but I do NOT want to create wordpress user accounts for each emember user, as this messes with login redirects and other user info detection. I don’t want users to ever need to know this site is running on a WordPress engine.

Does anyone have any insights on how to alter my comments fields so that:

a) the comments form is only provided if the user is a registered and logged-in eMember.

b) all people can read the comments, whether logged in or not.

c) non-users and non-logged members see a simple message: Login or Register to post comments.

d) email field is prefilled from logged in emember user account info.

a) Simply check the “Members Must be Logged in to Comment” field in eMember settings to make it so only your emember users can leave comment (this doesn’t require you to use WP Integration feature).

b) By default all the comments on a post that is protected are also protected. You can keep the “Protect Comments Separately” field checked in the eMember settings to override that. Check that checkbox and leave the comments unprotected which will allow anyone to be able to view the comments

c) Once you do the setup mentioned in (a) it will automatically do this

d) We don’t have a feature to do this yet.
