Hi,

Wondering if it’s possible so that guests can’t use an e-mail that is associated with a registered e-mail. For example bob@gmail.com has an account on our site that is used by Person A. Person B tries to leave a comment with bob@gmail as the e-mail address but as they are not logged into that account it rejects the comment.

Hi,

We will provide a solution in the next version of the wpDiscuz plugin. I'll update this topic once it's ready,

In case you want to say thank you! 🙂
We'd really appreciate if you leave a good review on the plugin page.
This is the best way to say thank you to this project and the support team.

Hi,

The new version is ready.

You should update the wpDiscuz plugin to the latest version and use the hook provided in this documentation: https://wpdiscuz.com/docs/codex/actions/wpdiscuz_before_wp_new_comment/

Check out this FAQ as well: https://wpdiscuz.com/community/f-a-q/how-to-prevent-guests-from-using-registered-users-email-addresses/#post-27576
