Dear Drupal Community,
I have a project that wants to be able to have return visitors put their email into comments and be authenticated for comment approval. The client does not want the user to need to create an account but if an account was created for the person in the Drupal system this would not be a problem.
Evidently this is done with Wordpress and I am hoping someone can recommend a module or recipe for making this happen with Drupal.
Thanks,
Steve

I'm not sure if there is a module for this, but it would be really simple to do in a small module:
function mymodule_comment(&$comment, $op) { if ($op=='insert' && !$comment['uid']){ //only perform on operating insert for new comments and if the user is anonymous $has_published=db_result(db_query("SELECT cid FROM {comments} WHERE status=%d AND mail='%s', COMMENT_NOT_PUBLISHED, $comment['mail']); // query database for a previously approved comment by this email if (!$has_published){ db_query("UPDATE {comments} SET status=%d WHERE cid=%d",COMMENT_NOT_PUBLISHED,$comment['cid']); //set the current comment to unpublished $comment['status']=COMMENT_NOT_PUBLISHED; //return with a status of not published so the user is notified that their comment is awaiting approval } } }
I would suggest adding an index on mail in the comments table (even better - status,mail).
