    Hi, if a guest user submit a post for the first time the plugin creates his user account. If a user already exists with the same e-mail address, the post should be assigned to that existing user but i get this message:
    “You already have an account in our site. Please login to continue.Clicking ‘OK’ will redirect you to the login page and you will lost the form data.Click ‘Cancel’ to stay at this page.”

    How i can fix this?

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks. I had already read both articles but still don’t understand what the problem is. The guide is written that if a user already exists with the same email address, the post will assign to that existing user. If I try to do that i get the message that I quoted above.

    Some other suggestion?

    Hello mimmo84,
    Please navigate to wp-admin->User Frontend->Forms. Select a form for edit. Then, click on Post Settings tab. Here you can find a option named Guest Post. Check this checkbox option.

    Here is the screenshot of that option.

    Thanks Mrinal. If i enable the option “Enable Guest Post” and disactive the option “Require Name and Email address” all works fine. However it would be more professional a check on nickname and on e-mail.

    Hello mimmo84,

    Glad to hear that your problem is resolved. I note that feature you requested.
