Supplying a default OpenID username for users
I'm developing a site for which my users are required to log in using OpenID to carry out many actions. There's a high chance a page viewer will be logged in to my site, and in such a circumstance, I'd like to auto-fill the 'openid login' field (maybe even hide all login options in favor of the auto-filled field). Is this possible?
I'd also love to see some way to specify that I want gravatars next to all comments on my site, so I can guarantee users will see the same avatar in a comment thread as they will elsewhere in the site.

I’m undecided

Inappropriate?Thanks for getting in contact. We currently do not offer the OpenID functionality that you have in mind. I apologize for the inconvenience.
We also do not offer default gravatar implementation for commenters without IntenseDebate accounts.
I know these aren't the answers that you were hoping for and I apologize for the frustration.
All the best,

Inappropriate?This solution more or less seems to work (lemme see if I'm able to post the code...):
<script>
function openidize() {
$id("IDCommentsHeadLogin").href="javascript:showLoginOpenID()";
$id("txtHeadLoginOpenID").value='http://default-open-id/';
}
try {
if(window.addEventListener) window.addEventListener("load",openidize,false);
else if(window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload",openidize);
else openidize();
}catch(e) { }
</script>
I put it right after the id script. It basically does two things - provides the default openid and makes it open OpenID signup when user clicks "Login to comment". It does not affect signup form at the bottom. I haven't tried to manipulate that, but I think it's also possible.
P.S. I have only tested it in FF and Opera.
I’m silly

Inappropriate?Or this! Should automatically log a user in using an OpenID if they're not logged in already.

...
< script type="text/javascript">
function log_user_in()
{
if (!commentObj.curUser.isLoggedIn)
{
var list = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
for (i=0; i < list.length; i++)
{
var item = list[i];
if (item.name == 'openid' && item.value == 'http://')
{
item.value = 'http://www.example.com/openid';
}
}
document.getElementById('frmHeadLoginOpenID').submit();
}
}
</head>

I'd certainly like IntenseDebate to support automatic OpenID login as a feature someday, instead of needing a hack like this!
I’m crazy
