    Hello!

    After updating to 3.2.6 I am facing an issue that a user is not displayed correctly in the comment box. You can see the problem e.g. here: Link to issue

    The user “Peter” should be “Comment-Bot” and this user is not a guest but an author. If I deactivate the plugin, the user is shown correctly.

    Cache is deleted of course, Jetpack comments are not active.

    Can you please have a look? If you need information, please ask.

    Many thanks!

    Hi
    try to play with “Use guest email to detect registered account” option. If it’s unchecked please check and test, if it’s checked please uncheck and test. Screen: https://screencast.com/t/XjafjZp41zHO

    Also, please make sure you use correct phrases for according user roles in wpDiscuz Phrases settings.

    Hi,

    thank you for the really quick reply.

    I ticked the box and now the correct user is shown. But the role is not fetched correctly. User “Comment-Bot” is an author and should be colored red. But the user is still only a guest.

    Phrases are alright, the user itself has also an avatar which is not displayed too.

    Many thanks!

    Then something is wrong with those users/comments, maybe those are imported users/comments or may be those have been created with non-regular method. wpDiscuz doesn’t have such issue, this problem definitely comes from users/comments data. Or maybe some other 3rd party solutions affects wpDiscuz. Please try to check with default theme and w/o other plugins.

    Also there may be such a problem if the same user post comment as a member and as a guest, but use the same username/email. If you’re posting a comment without loggin you’ll always be Guest. that doesn’t matter you have account with the same username/email or not. And the “Use guest email to detect registered account” option is especially created to merge users/guests using email addresses. So you see that difference.

    Ok, then it was a bug in a previous version. The comment gets created after a post is published so the “Comment-Bot” will never be logged in.

    Thank you very much for your support!
