Simple Comment Notification

PMF

Subscription

It’s possible to send email notification only if user checked subscription checkbox. To enable this functionality you must add such code (e.g. in functions.php in the active theme):

add_filter('scn_enable_subscription', '__return_true');

Optionally, you can also change default checkbox value to true:

add_filter('scn_subscribe_value', '__return_true');

Autoresponder

Plugin have a hidden functionality that sends autoresponder to the author of the comment. To turn it on you must add such code (e.g. in functions.php in the active theme):

add_filter('scn_autoresponder_to_author', '__return_true');

Optionally, you can also turn off default plugin functionality:

add_filter('scn_notify_parent_author', '__return_false');

The title and content of the autoresponder can be personalized:

function custom_scn_autoresponder_subject($subject, $comment_object) {
    return $subject;
}
add_filter('scn_autoresponder_subject', 'custom_scn_autoresponder_subject', 10, 2);

function custom_scn_autoresponder_body($body, $comment_object) {
    return $body;
}
add_filter('scn_autoresponder_body', 'custom_scn_autoresponder_body', 10, 2);

You can even set who will not receive this notifications by changing minimum required user capabilities:

function custom_scn_autoresponder_cap() {
    return 'edit_posts';
}
add_filter('scn_autoresponder_cap', 'custom_scn_autoresponder_cap');
