If I comment out that if-then function, will the plugin in send an email to even if the post author comments?

Yes, it should. You may need to comment out the next conditional as well, if you have issues with comment moderation.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the kind words!

The issue you’re encountering is an inherent part of the core wp_notify_postauthor() function, here:

// The comment was left by the author
if ( $comment->user_id == $post->post_author )
	return false;

All the Plugin focuses on is expanding the list of addresses that get emailed when the notification email is sent. In the core function, if the comment is left by the post author, the function returns false, and no email at all is sent.

But, that’s a valid point: non-author recipients would potentially still want to receive notification of comments also left by the post author.

My concern is that I’m also trying to get the core function revised, such that I can simply use a filter, rather than overwriting the entire pluggable function. But, to make this change, I would still have to override the entire function.

Let me put some thought into it, to try to come up with the best approach.

but where are Unblockable Popup to install ?

i put it Unblockable Popup in seach plugin in panel controll and not show, only show MBP-auto-active.

MaxBlogPress plugins are not available in the official Plugin directory (largely, for the issues quoted above).

MaxBlogPress Unblockable Popup plugin Not Installed N/A

This indicates that you don’t have the MBP Unblockable Popup Plugin installed.

Currently, all email addresses receive the same email (by design).

I think it’s mostly only an issue with the comment-moderation notification emails, but you bring up a valid point.

What would be the best solution? Only exposing the option to admins/editors? Maybe a Plugin option not to send moderation emails to non-admins?
