Thanks, Dan! Unfortunately what is happening when I add that code is paid and free members can see their login info but the comments and commenting field don’t show up for either.
Of course, there is a high likelihood I have made an error. Below is what I have in comments.hbs (without your additional lines) - note I’ve removed the login form. This shows comments and the commenting field/button to all members. When I add the two lines, they disappear. (Screenshots below as well.)
For reference, there are a couple of goals here: one, offer another incentive for readers to pay for membership; and two, limit spam/abuse (and the need for moderation).
If I use John’s code above, only paid members can even see the existence of comments, which is great except that it doesn’t offer much of an incentive to join as people don’t even know they’re there. If I change line 3 below to {{#if @member.paid}}, only paid members see the comments/can comment and free members and those not logged in see the upsell, which is the best option I can see so far but again, isn’t a huge incentive.
Thanks for any insight you can offer!
