README

Anonymous, permission-based guest posting extension for Flarum

What

The extension lets unregistered users comment on discussion, create new discussions, and vote on polls. It is fully compatible with the latest version of Flarum and has been tested with dozens of extensions and large-scale communities. The extension was developed by @clarkwinkelmann, a core developer of Flarum. Run the following command to install:

composer require convo-extensions/flarum-ext-guest-posting

How

🔒 Permission-based

Once you install the extension, you can configure its functionality from the Permissions panel (and limit it by tags). You can let unregistered users:

Start discussions
Start discussions without approval
Reply to discussions
Reply to discussions without approval
Vote on polls
Change a vote

If you don't select "without approval" options, anonymous posts and discussions will not be shown until approved by a moderator.

👤 Migrate posts into a newly-created account

Once the user has made an anonymous post, he'd be shown a message on the homepage encouraging him to sign up and attribute his posts to his newly-registered account (works by using cookies). How cool is that?! 🤯

🌎 Translatable

All strings in this extension can be translated through the Linguist extension
