hi, i have the advanced guestbook, and it says if you want to password protect it so that ppl have to give a password to comment, just check the "password required" field and enter a password..i did that, but it didnt work can someone tell me whats wrong?

for the record i want only let ppl who i give the pwd be able to sign it becuz of some harassing posts from a few ppl-whom i cant get their ip addys.

thanks in advance

In Guest book 2.2 visitor password feature doesn't work. Anyone can login to post comments. I only want people with a select few predetermined passwords to be able to comment.


Any suggestions anyone?

Not sure if I understand the question properly, but . . .

There's a difference adding a comment to to a visitor's post and signing the guestbook.

You can stop people from adding a comment to someone's post by requiring a password to do that, but I don't think you can require a password to post to the guestbook itself.

You might get around it by protecting the entry page with some type of javascript, but that's far from foolproof.
