Easily enable email notification of new comments to users other than the post author.
Via Dashboard -> Settings -> Discussion, enable email notification to users by site admin, user role (Administrator, Editor, Author, Contributor, Subscriber ), or define arbitary email addresses to notify. Also, optionally disable email notification for comments left by registered users.
Email notification for individual users can be enabled via each user’s profile.
This plugin works exactly as I would have hoped, was a breeze to set up, has the ability to choose what “level” of user gets notices, and the configuration form shows up under the “Discussion” menu item – right where it should.
Thanks for the perfect addition to my WP site!
I’m using this to send a comment notification to a second email and it works as expected.
Thanks to the author
I have been looking for plugin or function to send comment notification to multiple authors, including admin and it worked with your plugin.
Thanks alot.
Never had a problem with it. Recommended.
With the WP update this plugin stopped working for me.
