If I want to switch authors to anonymous in Blog Entries, there is not any setting for this.

I can do it only via SQL Query

 

UPDATE blog_entries
SET entry_is_anon = 1;

 

Would be possible add feature for this?

If you edit the blog in the ACP, there is a setting at the bottom of the edit page. Or if you click "Manage blog>Edit blog" on the front end, you can set it there also.

Note, you are setting to allow people to post anonymously. There is no such way to force people to post anonymously

As the blog belongs to someone, it wouldn’t make sense to allow anonymous entries. 

You can allow people to comment anonymously.

There are also group blogs. Allowing anonymous entries there would make more sense there.

But yeah, for single blogs it's a useless option.

We have group blogs, but when I create a new entry, there is name of our company employee.

I remember it was there.

But is there something wrong? Where is it?

 

And another thing, there is not option for date when I want to publish the entry when I edit it. Only when I start new entry

In blogs, you can anonymize only comments, not entries. That's how it is by design.

You can probably suggest in entries: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/forum/499-feedback/

But this feature was available in previous versions and for some reasons has been removed.

Then why would there be an entry_is_anon column in the table database?

Are you sure? I'm just guessing as I never used it in Blogs.

As Adriano mentioned there, you an anonymise only comments. 

Blogs are not important for us, we need fix issues in Pages.

Anyway, why in SQL database is then column entry_is_anon?

Please could you clarify what you mean here? Your topic is related to blogs

This is not something I am able to answer as I dont develop the software personally. One of our devs may be able to answer that question, but in all honesty, if you are not sure how to look, its probably best not to be playing in the database directly
