How such a thing is implemented in VK: This could be implemented after introducing the "Suggested Posting" or "delayed posting" feature by users, and then the group admin publishes the post either from the direct author or from the community/space. In the second case, the author will be hidden.

How I'm currently planning to do publishing from anonymizers. Create a FluentForm for anonymous posts, and then self-publish from an account named "Anonymous Author"

An anonymous author must be pre-moderated. If he or she asks a question that he or she is ashamed or uncomfortable asking directly, but the essence of the question or his or her story makes sense, the publication can be published. But if it's just pampering, insulting or fake, it's better to reject it.

This is a Feature Request and it would be nice to implement it nativly in fCommunity.

Admin could decide if the Anonymous feature is allowed and specify which Spaces and Users (Paid vs Free) can use it.

Note: Admin/MODS could always see the Real User Name for every Anonymous post/comment (Paid/Free) - easy tracking (users log/record) in case of any disputes etc.

Anonymous posting could be also good to convert Free users into Paid members where the Admin could decide that Paid users only can see other users Real Name/Nick. User Profile link would be a hyperlink only when the User is Paid/LoggedIn and when the other User Profile is set to Public (I hope User Profile visibility feature is coming one day).

This anonymous feature could be also configured for Public fCommunities where not logged-in users wouldnt see the Real User Name (User Profile link wouldnt be a hyperlink - external visitors cannot click it) instead they would see just the user name: AnonymousNinja. Probably more visitors would be convinced to register and log-in.

Anonymous posting would be also a good security feature to avoid Users Name Listing and prevent users enumeration etc.

Adding related link and link from the past so Ninjas can follow.

Roadmap: link, link, link

Mat β€ŽΒ this is a great feature to have

I saw Shahjahan JewelΒ post that they aren't going to have anonymous posting as a feature in the core. It is one of the good things about Facebook Groups.
