@karenelated I forked this plugin and fixed a bunch of bugs, including bugs related to HTML emails. If you want to give WP Comment Subscriptions a shot and let me know if the bug still exists, I will gladly get that fixed for you:

Hello Raam
Thanks. Great options on the new plugin. I tried it out and unfortunately there are no hyperlinks in these email notifications either.
Regards
Karen
@karenelated Thank you for confirming that. 🙂
I’ve opened a new issue for this on GitHub for the WP Comment Subscriptions plugin and will push out a fix soon:
https://github.com/raamdev/wp-comment-subscriptions/issues/7
@karenelated WP Comment Subscriptions v140109 now includes a new option to automatically HTMLify the links in your messages:
New ‘HTMLify links in emails’ Option. When using HTML emails for messages you can now choose to have WP Comment Subscriptions automatically HTMLify the links for you (Settings -> Comment Subscriptions -> Options -> HTMLify links in emails). You can, of course, leave this option disabled and add your own HTML to the messages if you prefer. See: https://github.com/raamdev/wp-comment-subscriptions/issues/7.

Hi Raam
Great, the hyperlinks are working perfectly. However your anchor to the comment is placed underneath the last reply so it effectively brings the reader to the comment below it. Is there any way to move the anchor to the top of the comment string, that reply belongs to?
Thanks! Great work.
Karen
@karenelated The location of the anchor itself is determined by your WordPress Theme, so you’ll need to change that there. For example, [comment_permalink] in your message returns a link like this:
http://example.com/my-example-post/#comment-34837
The #comment-34837 portion of the link is the anchor and that corresponds to the value of the id="" attribute in your comments. For example:
<article id="comment-34837" class="comment">
<div class="comment-author vcard">
<div class="comment-meta commentmetadata">
</div>
</div>
<div class="comment-content">
<p>My test comment</p>
</div>
<div class="reply">
<a href="/my-example-post/?replytocom=34837#respond">Reply</a>
</div>
</article>
In this case, the comment link would place <article id="comment-34837" class="comment"> at the top of the screen, as that’s where id="comment-34837" exists.
If [comment_permalink] doesn’t place the comment at the top of the screen, then your WordPress Theme likely has that anchor placed in the wrong spot and I recommend contacting the theme developer to fix this.
