enabling anon commenting
A basic question I know, but I feel like I've sifted through every setting option and the IJ FAQ page and google have both been of no use except for explaining how to disable anon commenting. My settings are on the opposite (what was the default) to disabling anon commenting, so I'm not understanding at all how it's not working. If anyone knows that would be so great!

	Go here: http://www.insanejournal.com/manage/comments/ To disable anon commenting, choose Enable comments from: Registered Users (Reply to this) (Thread)

I was actually hoping to allow them! I've got my settings there set to 'Enable comments from: Everyone', and when commenting on an entry, it gives users the option to select comment as Anonymous, but for some reason when you click to submit the comment it comes up with:

You must be logged in or using a username/password to reply to this protected entry.

You are not authorized to reply to this protected entry.

	Oh, nevermind. I think there's no way to allow them on friend locked entries perhaps, but thank you so much anyway! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No there isn't, because if you're not logged in and friended by the journal in question, you shouldn't be able to see the entry to comment on, thus anon commenting isn't allowed on locked entries of any kind. (Reply to this) (Parent)
