touche. oh sometimes i just don't think, or over think. cant ever tell.

I understand, you asked the right questions to clarify the problem for me. But from the scalability aspect of Simple-Press,  the form topic and form post should be separated into separate functions for future purposes if you have to add extra fields through plugins. Just a suggestion that I think would make SP better. I appreciate the work you guys have done with this project, simply amazing job.

Hi there,

I am hoping to get some help with php coding, and applying a filter to sph_topic_editor_header_bottom, in order to remove guest name and guest email. Could anyone lend me a hand with that? I am trying to implement a form of lazy registration, so guests can post their topic as well as register at the same time.

Any help, ideas or insights will be very useful to me!

Thanks!

Edit: I tried using preg_replace, however it doesnt seem to work

Here is the process. A guest user clicks add topic, and they see the add topic editor (without guest name and guest email fields). They fill in the form with the topic name and topic content. Before the post is processed, I am trying to register and log the user in with the current registration fields I have, either using the fields on the same page or through ajax, maybe there is a better way? Once they register, all the $_GET fields are then processed with the add topic function.

Edit: The main reason for this process is because it makes it easier for guests to register and more incentive as they have already put in an effort in creating a topic. Whereas having the user to register first discourages them from posting or using the site.
