## Description

**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.

#### Moving from Subscribe To Comments Reloaded

Subscribe To Comments Reloaded is no longer available in the plugin directory. Install
this plugin, go to **Comments  Notifications  Import** and click **Import subscriptions**.
Active subscriptions keep working; subscriptions that were never confirmed stay “
Not confirmed” and receive no emails. This plugin is not affiliated with Subscribe
To Comments Reloaded or its authors.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the plugin from **Plugins  Add New Plugin**.
 2. Go to **Comments  Notifications  Settings** to choose the options commenters see
    and the sender name and address.
 3. Click **Send test** to check that your site can send email. If the test lands in
    spam, set up an SMTP plugin with an address on your own domain.
 4. Visit a post: the **Email me** choice appears above the comment form’s submit button.

## FAQ

### Does it need an external email service?

No. Emails are sent with WordPress’s wp_mail() function, the same way WordPress 
sends password reset emails. If your host’s email is unreliable, any SMTP plugin
will be used automatically.

### Why did a subscriber not get a confirmation email?

Confirmation emails are sent when their comment is approved, at most once every 
10 minutes per address. Check the comment is approved and use **Send test** on the
settings screen.

### Does the comment form work with page caching?

Yes. With double opt-in (the default) every new subscription is confirmed by email,
so subscriptions keep working on cached pages.

### What happens to my data if I delete the plugin?

Subscriptions are kept unless you tick **Delete all subscriptions and settings when
the plugin is deleted** in the settings.
