This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Advanced use of the JIRA issue collector

Issue collector works well and creates issues. But we need to login jira before create issue. If you dont login your jira account you could not create see the collector form.

Matchreporter?Select either of the following:
  • Always use Issue Reporter — select this option to ensure that the default issue reporter you specify above, will always be the reporter of issues created by submission of the JIRA feedback form on your web site.
  • Attempt to match user session of submitter or submitter email address — select this option if you want the reporter of an issue created by submission of the JIRA feedback form on your web site, to be a JIRA user:
    • Who is logged in to JIRA when they submit a JIRA feedback form on your web site (in the same browser session).
    • Who's email address matches the email address specified in the email field of the JIRA feedback form.
    information Please note that if the JIRA user does not have the Create Issues project permissionin your JIRA project, the default issue reporter you specify above will be used as the issue's reporter.

This would seem to be your issue. If you select Always use Issue Reporter, the issue collector won't try to match users with their JIRA counterparts and will use a default issue reporter.
