I want the administrator to get email notification of all comments

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m wondering if anyone out there has come up with a creative solution for this: As the administrator, I’d like to get email notifications for all comments made, even comments on posts by other authors (without having to moderate them). Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Reed

    The below is assuming that you are the owner of the blog, and not just someone acting as an administrator for the blog owner.

    Go to settings > discussion and turn comment moderation completely off (under “Before a comment appears” uncheck both selections).

    Under “Email me whenever” make both checkboxes are selected. The reason to select the lower box (comment held in moderation) is that if someone posts a bunch of links in a comment, the comment will automatically be held for moderation unless you change it to a high number under “comment moderation.”

    Make sure and click save when done making your changes.
