ModulusTools Comment Notifications brings readers back to the conversation. When someone leaves a comment, they can choose to be emailed about replies to their comment or about every new comment on that post.
Features
- "Email me" choice in the comment form — replies to my comment, all new comments, or nothing. Nothing is preselected unless you choose otherwise.
- Double opt-in — new subscribers confirm by email, so nobody can subscribe someone else. Logged-in users commenting with their own account email are confirmed automatically.
- One-click unsubscribe in every email, including the unsubscribe button that Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail show next to the sender.
- Subscription page for readers — see and cancel all their subscriptions on your site, without an account.
- Emails only for approved comments — nothing is sent for comments that are held for moderation or marked as spam.
- Large lists are sent in batches with WP-Cron, one email per recipient, so addresses are never shared.
- Subscriber list for admins — search, filter, delete and export to CSV under Comments → Notifications.
- Import from Subscribe To Comments Reloaded — copy existing subscriptions in one click. The original data is left untouched.
- Privacy tools — works with the WordPress personal data export and erase tools and adds suggested text to your privacy policy guide.
- Uses WordPress's own email function, so it works with any SMTP plugin you already use. No account and no external service.
