What's going on with my recent visitor plugin?
I have a private wiki. I have a recent visitor plugin on my home page to track visitors. I have had several "Guest(administrator)" pop up in lieu of displaying a name. When I double click the "Guest" it offers no email but only an IP address. What's causing this?

Inappropriate?If you are seeing guest administrators, you've likely used our Share tools to invite people.
If you use the "Share This Wiki" tool under the SideBar it allows you to send a Share link to a person so that they can click the link and have immediate access to the wiki. (You can also do this from the Sharing page in Settings)
When a new contributor uses the Share link, they don't have to log in and thus will show up as "guest". If you really wish to have the contributors show up as real people with email addresses, you'll have to give out the invite key to the wiki and make the contributors log in normally.
If you wish to completely stop anonymous logins, you will have to change the wiki invite key by going to the Settings page and clicking on Access and Keys. Once the invite key changes, the Share links that you have sent out under the old key will stop working.
A better way to add folks to your wiki is by inviting them via the Users page in Settings. This requires them to sign up with a PBwiki account and you'll always be able to tell who they are when they log in.
