Show number of comments when not logged in was created by Bart Coenen
Hi,

I enabled comments only for registered users. The result is that when a user is not logged in, he does not see the number of comments or the invitation to post one below the article intro. I want to show this (number or invitation) to all the users, also when they are not logged in. Is there a way to make this possible?

You need to override your template.

In category_item.php locate the following block of code
<?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemCommentsAnchor') && ( ($this->item->params->get('comments') == '2' && !$this->user->guest) || ($this->item->params->get('comments') == '1')) ): ?>

And change it into this
<?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemCommentsAnchor') &&  ($this->item->params->get('comments') == '1')) : ?>

This post will help you with the process.

Thank you for the quick response. I changed the code on mysite.be/mytemplate/html/comk2/default/category_item.php but this does not have the desired result (it seems to do nothing). Do I have to change it elsewhere as well?

@Bart Coenen

Ensure that you are using the latest version of K2. Also check that you do not have any custom template overrides.
