Easy to implement – excellent features
by AgilityJeff·9 years ago

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!
