Owen.. this is a fantastic plug-in! I’m using it on my blog and it works great! You can add me to your list

I attempted to install your plug… loaded it to my server (it’s not windows), activated it okay, but when I go to options and click save, I get this message: “Cannot load comment-email-responder.php” I don’t know what comment_form is or how to check if that is there on my skin… will do some looking. Thanks.

@Cynthia: The plugin needs to live in the \plugins folder (not in a seperate folder under this). I’ll sort this out in the next version

I’m going to install this TODAY! And this is SO weird… but I was thinking of asking you to create a plugin like this – THIS MORNING!!!! Very freaky.

The bug whereby multiple comments on the post confuse the plugin has now been fixed

I really can’t thank you enough for this. It’s exactly the plugin I wanted.

Going to give you some linkylove on my blogs now.

Owen this is fantastic! I downloaded the plugin and I’ve uploaded it for all of our blogs but I’ve only activated it and tried it on WebStyle so far. Did a test drive on my own comment to see how it worked email wise.

I love it already! I’ve been keeping my eye out for something like this recently too. You seem to have read our minds.

The only suggestion/request that I have would be if somewhere in the email reply the blog url or post url could be included.

That would help us easily get return visitors if they wanted to come back and comment again or see what else we’ve posted.

I guess we could put the web address in the email title but that doesn’t look so great. I opted to put my name and the website name. If you are able to implement this suggestion I’d love it if you’d let me know.

Now I’m off to activate the plugin on the rest of our many sites! Then I’ll have some fun commenting!

Does anyone else think Owen should put a Paypal donation button on his site???

I think he should. I’d make a donation.

Err.. The envelope didn’t appear, and I’m not sure whether I’m missing something.. Hhaha..

@Tricia: I’m glad you like it. Hey that’s another idea for the plugin. I could also get it to put the name of the person you’re responding to in the comment box. Not quite threaded comments, but you know what I mean. I’ll be adding the post URL also, I thought about that when responding to people’s emails. It will help keep the conversation in one place huh?

If you feel the plugin deserves PayPal Love, head down to Andrew’s donation page: http://www.legalandrew.com/donations/ and give him some love there. He wrote the original code, and the plugin wouldn’t be where it is today without him. He’s also a student so probably needs it more than I do (assumption there).

just a note, WP ajax comment edit plugin does not work with this plugin

it would be great if the email include a link back to the post

    Andy Beard on April 21st, 2007

Hi Owen

Any idea how this is going to work with threaded comments, where you already click on something to reply to someone?

14. 

    LcF on April 21st, 2007

    14

for who can’t wait, edit the plugin and add this line near line #112 immediate after the like start with “$body = …”

$body .= “\n\nLink: ” . get_permalink($postData->ID);

I added this to my blog today. Great stuff. Thanks Owen.

    Rory on April 21st, 2007

    17

I have installed the plugin, and I’m trying it out today. I left it in its own folder with the icon, and it seems to work just fine.

It clashes a bit with the DoFollow plugin – I clicked on the wee envelope to respond and it opened up the two edit boxes re. the commenter. But I can live with that…I think.

18. 

    owen on April 21st, 2007

@LCF: Thanks for the suggestion (and the code). I’m currently baking the next version which includes the link back to the post and the ability to specify a custom footer for the message

@Andy: Threaded comments. Hmmm .. haven’t ever used them, and I haven’t tested the plugin against them. I might just try when I get a chance, so I’ll add it to my todo list …

20. 

    owen on April 21st, 2007

    20

@Rory: Can you elaborate on the problem? There should be no issue with DoFollow. I’m running it all my blogs and haven’t seen any adverse effects.

If there’s anything I can help you with, just shout !

21. 

    Trish on April 21st, 2007

    21

I got it working on all three, easy peasy and added it to my friends blog as well. NICE plugin!

22. 

    Rory on April 21st, 2007

    22

From what I can see, the DoFollow plugin I installed gives admin the ability to edit comments “on the fly”. Now, whenever I click on the commenter’s name, two little boxes open with their name and URL. (Just as an aside, I find this a little irritating, especially when I want to click directly to their blog.)

Anyway, the little envelope icon appears next to the commenter’s name. I assume this icon needs to be clicked on in order to arrange to send an email to the commenter. When I click on it, the boxes open up! It still registers the email requirement, but it means having to shut the boxes.

I’m hoping that I have completely misunderstood how to use this great little plug-in. Feel free to set me straight.

Thanks Dave. Just dropped a new version. You can now have a footer for your email and the email includes a link back to the post.

Owen the new version is fantastic!!! Thank you!

    Jules on April 21st, 2007

Thanks Owen, this is really nice! Is there a way to add a “subject” to the email I receive other than just the ” that it generates?

This is great, but it throws an error in the Admin page for me when I click on the little envelope icon next a commenter’s name under “Latest Activity”, “Comments”.

Everything else is fine, just this one little problem.

What a great plug-in idea, congrats to both of you involved.

@Jules: Have you configured a message subject in the Options page ?

41. 

    owen on April 23rd, 2007

    41

@Sheena: When you click the icon, are you getting a “Replying to: ” message under your comment box?

42. 

    owen on April 23rd, 2007

    42

@Scott: Are you getting a Javascript error when you click the icon?

43. 

    owen on April 23rd, 2007

Kym: It’s not designed to work on the Admin Dashboard. I’ll need to remove the icon from there

44. 

    Kym on April 23rd, 2007

Thanks Owen, no biggy for me but I guess that would tidy it up. Thanks again, this plug-in really “completes the blog loop” for me, its the one thing that I have felt was missing for ages.

But I cant get it to work! WWWAAAAHHH!!!
Im using the Unlimited Theme

Hi Owen,

I added this plugin on my blog:) Thank you for the very helpful instruction. I also send my thank you to Andrew!

Can I exchange links here too?

52. 

    Diego on April 28th, 2007

Everything seems to be fine, but as some people realized above, my icon (the envelope) is unclickble. And none ” Replying to: ? message appears.
And don?t appear any error message, nothing. The icon isn?t cliclkble and that?s all…

Hi Owen

Thanks so much for all your hard work! Unfortunately, I cannot make this fantastic plugin work on my blog. I’ve done everything I can think of, but it just won’t work. I’ve even changed themes, but it makes no difference. I have no idea what is wrong.

54. 

    Deb on May 1st, 2007

I can’t wait to try it!

Ok, installed, testing, my envelope icon isn’t clickable, but I did configure it like stated with the name, email and other info.

56. 

    Zura on May 2nd, 2007

    56

Hi. I can’t get the plugin to show up on my comments. I am “admin” so do I need to do some sort of code or configuring, outside the standard plugin configuration?

57. 

    Jill on May 2nd, 2007

Fantastic plugin!! Thank you so much!!

    aylee on May 6th, 2007

I love this plugin! Thanks Owen!

One question… when I reply to a comment, it says “Replying to: ” then a number. How can I change that to the commenter’s name instead?

59. 

    kelly on May 7th, 2007

    59

Fantastic!! My only issue is that when someone who is registered and logged into my blog leaves a comment, their name disappears from the comment..leaving only the icon – which works when clicked by the way, and the ’says’ which also works when clicked. In the recent comments widget on sidebar, same thing. Instead of saying ‘registered usersname on ‘name of post’ it only says. Only an issue for myself when I am logged in as admin.
Oh I’m also about to test it with a threaded comments plugin, will let you know how I go
Cheers, Kelly

I downloaded the plug in but i do not see an icon that allows me to eamil anyone

61. 

    Rosario on May 9th, 2007

    61

I am using the Benevolence theme. I also edited the url in the .php of the plugin to point to where the image is. Other than that, I have activated and edited the options, but I haven’t changed any other coding.

Nonetheless, I also don’t see the icon. Owen, please email me back!

62. 

    kelly on May 9th, 2007

    62

Ok, it seems as though your plugin works very well with the YATCP plugin I’m using for threaded comments, but conflicts with meng tracker which tracks links clicked. I deactivated that after looking at page source and it’s all working brilliantly now
Cheers, Kelly

    Hinching on May 10th, 2007

    63

Firstly, kudos to you and Andrew Flusche for the brilliant plugin. I’ve got a feature request which I’d like to see developed in the next version of the plugin.

I usually respond to several comments within one single comment. Is it possible where the plugin could select multiple comment IDs so that I am ‘replying to 331,332,334 and 335′ all at once? Basically it means sending the same email to all 4 comment authors.

Cheerio!

64. 

    Rosario on May 10th, 2007

    64

Apparently I needed to have the cite tags. So now the image is showing up. However, it remains unclickable…

65. 

    Rosario on May 10th, 2007

    65

Ah! Clicking the icon does it work. It changes my comment box to “Replying To:” #. Niiice, it works!

Is there a way to change the # to the commenter’s name?

66. 

    Andrew Flusche on May 10th, 2007

    66

Holy cow!! Owen, it looks like you’ve been doing a bang-up job with the plugin support. I had no idea so many people were using the plugin.

Don’t hesitate to bug me if you’d like some help with anything. I just finished my last final exam, so I have a little more free time (for now).

Andrew

    Stephen McCutcheon on May 14th, 2007

Hi Owen,

Would it possible to have Word Press email comments to your inbox and then you could respond from there.

Currently you have to respond through the pop box form provided and to receive comment emails and then respond directly back to that blog entry would save time.

Hi, I’m using this plugin since today on my blog. I noticed a few points regarding XHTML syntax which was possible thanks to the Firefox HTML Tidy plugin. In brief, some HTML parts in your plugin was modified to suit XHTML syntax (lines 33, 80, 82). Also on line 82, the id and its value are twice repeated (id=”reply_comment”). That also needs to be fixed. After that, HTML tidy gives a nice big green tick mark If you want

Oops sorry, pressed the button too quickly. As I was saying, I can mail you the diff of the two files if you want.

    GD on May 16th, 2007

I cannot get this plugin to work–after installing and cliking on the icon gives me the comment # below the form field so I know the JS is passing the correct comment #. But have tested and get no email notifications to my email accounts (non-admin accouts).

I am using the MistyLook 2.2 theme which I have edited, and running WP 2.1.3.

Had the same problem with the “Subscribe to Comment” plugin where emails were not going out. Can this be a mail server issue?

71. 

    Kim on May 19th, 2007

    71

First off, I want to say what an awesome plugin!! I have had it implemented for the last week, but it wouldn’t email. Wouldn’t you know, you have to read all the instructions on how to set it up first? Anyway, I have it completely running and love it. Thank you for the wonderful plugin. Just so you know, I am running 2.2, and threaded comments also. I disabled my subscribe to comment, because, well, it is no longer needed with your wonderful plugin.

    AleB on May 25th, 2007

    73

It is all I ve always wanted. But… ;-P Unclikable???
Trying fix it myself, but not really. I guess is the scrip:

onclick=”javascript:RespondToComment(’ . $commentID . ‘

Please let me know how to fix it.

Many Thanks

Okay I got your plugin to work and I love it! Well, it works on two of my blogs. On my LunaTail blog (the one I’m commenting with) I don’t see the little envelope to let me reply to the comment. Hrm…

77. 

    Cynthia Blue on May 31st, 2007

    77

I got this to work. I didn’t have a 10 listed in the DB for my admin user. Check out the link under my name for my fix.

    Owen on May 31st, 2007

    Rudy on June 3rd, 2007

I’ve discovered your plugin and i’ve found it amazing. Therefore i decided to translate the procedures regarding installation, usage and the rest into Romanian language so the Romanian users can implement it more easily into their blogs.

Soon, i hope I’ll have enough time to translate also the plugin into Romanian (As i did with most of the plugins installed on my main website).

I don’t know if it is possible, but maybe a language file would be good to have.

The “Romanian” translation of this page (partially) – is to be found at http://xtc.rudy.ro/index.php/plugin-wordpress-comment-email-responder/

Hello,

I just installed your plugin. It sure is a fantastic contribution to the wordpress blogging experience. Thank you.

However, I face a problem. The icon is properly appearing but when I click on it, nothing happens. I realized that there is a javascript function attached to the icon, but there seem to be errors.

Any help would be appreciated.

83. 

    Owen on June 11th, 2007

    83

@Frederick: Can you confirm you have < ?php wp_head(); ?> in your template header?

84. 

    Owen on June 11th, 2007

    84

@Rodrigo: Yup, this will be there in the next version. Working on it right now

85. 

    Fr?d?ric Panek on June 12th, 2007

    85

Yes is there in the header.

Cheers.

Hi,

Great plugin. Exactly what I was looking for.
But… I have a little problem.
Actually, I also have installed the Subscribe-to-comments plugin and if someone is already subscribed, they still get the second email from your plugin.
Any ideas?
It’s kind of bad for a reader to be “bombed” twice.
Thanks for any help.

88. 

    Carola}i{ on June 23rd, 2007

Olá Owen, I’ve just installed your plugin and I believe it’s working fine! Thank you very much for your contribution!

Ugh, I just installed a new template and now the comment email responder isn’t working… hrmph. Been looking at it for a couple hours now and not sure why. If you get a sec…

91. 

    Owen on June 25th, 2007

    91

@A Marques: Hmm .. it should work well with the other plugin. I’ll run some tests and get back to you.

92. 

    Owen on June 25th, 2007

    92

@Cynthia Blue: Have you confirmed your admin user has a user_level of 10? Sometimes wordpress doesn’t assign a user_level to the admin user and this has proved to be the thing that trips up the plugin the most.

93. 

    Cristian on June 26th, 2007

    93

My Icons are unclickable too

I`m usign WP Ajax Comments

94. 

    Owen on June 26th, 2007

    94

@Cristian: Have you tried disabling the WP AJAX Comments plugin to see if it makes the problem better ?

95. 

    Cristian on June 27th, 2007

    95

I tried that but did not solve the problem.

96. 

    Jenny on June 28th, 2007

    96

I figured out the problem of the user level. Just check your name and set youself to admin. If someone else said this, so what, I wanna feel smart. LOL

Owen – Let me first compliment you on a fantastic plugin! I absolutely love it. Excellent job.

Now if you do not mind can I make a suggestion for the next version? I would love the opportunity to respond to more than one commenter in a single response. In other words, if I have three people comment on a post, I could click on all three of them to receive one comment I wrote.

What do you think? Thanks again!

100. 

     Owen on July 12th, 2007

     100

@Cord: Thanks for your comment. I’m glad you find the plugin useful.

The next version will have the ability to specify multiple recipient. Just have some outstanding testing to do on it before I release.

Hi Owen!
Great plugin! I seem to be having a problem with it though… The icon appears beside the commenter’s name in my dashboard. Is that where it’s supposed to be? That’s the only place where I see the icon and it’s not clickable!

I would really appreciate your help on this. Thanks!

103. 

     Owen on July 17th, 2007

     103

@Andrea: The envelope appearing on the DashBoard is a side-effect which will be corrected in the next version. You should also get the envelope appearing on the actual comments, next to the commentor’s name. At least, you should if the theme designer uses the comment_author_link() function. I’ve seen older themes that use a chunk of older code to implement this. Let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi Owen!

I don’t know if I have to configure something in Wordpress or in my host server, but I’m getting this error:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 503 This mail server requires authentication when attempting to send to a non-local e-mail address. Please check your mail client settings or contact your administrator to verify that the domain or address is defined for this server. in comment-email-responder.php on line 142

Do you have a clue in what I must do?

I discovered a plugin that can solve my problem:

http://www.shiftthis.net/wordpress-swift-smtp-plugin/

It’ll use SMTP to send mail instead of PHP’s mail() function, but I had to change line 142 to use wp_mail().

Hi Owen, I just have a quick question;

say I have 4 comments by 4 different people on a post, and I want to send the same reply to all 4 as well as leave a comment.

So far, when I click the first envelope, the number shows up (replying to : xxxx) then when I click the 2nd envelope the number is replaced with another number, and so on.

My question is- is it still emailing all the ones I hit the envelope for, or just the most recent?

In my head I feel like it is only doing the most recent envelope I clicked- otherwise it would say (replying to : xx , xx, xx)

so, what is it doing?

Great idea. I got it activated but nothing shows in comments. Anyone else have this problem?

@Eve: The current version only responds to the last one you clicked on. The new version will take multiple comments and guess what, shows them in exactly the same way you would imagine it to I might release it this weekend, time willing

@Robin: Do you get an envelope next to the commentor’s name ?

I love this plugin, I was thinking about something like this this morning and found yours. The only other “feature” I would add is the ability to ONLY emial the comment to the person and not have it on the comment thread on the site. Sometimes I don’t want the reply to be public and it would be handy to save the step of going to my email to respond.

Owen, do you have an ETA on when the next rev is coming out? I can’t wait for the multiple comments?

Thank you, Owen.

I’m using your plugin in my blog now and it really help when answering comments. Before your plugin, answer a comment was a fight…

I did a modification on the string $subject… I just translated the message from to portuguese (Tell me if I could not change this)

Thank you very much

Just wanted to say Thanks for this plugin, Owen. Anything that helps to foster a conversation between blogger and readers is pure gold… and it works like a charm!

I’m using wp2.2.2
The plugin gets installed but the icon doesn’t apper.
Is it compatible with wp2.2.2?

119. 

     Owen on August 14th, 2007

     119

@Sachin: It should be compatible with WP2.2.2. Can you make sure that your theme uses “comment_author_link()” for the author link. Some older themes use a block of code instead of this, but the plugin hooks into this function.

     Owen on August 14th, 2007

@Phius: No problem with the mod. Feel free to change anything you wish. Glad you like the plugin.

Unfortunately, I can’t get this to work at all – I get no image (clickable or otherwise): on IE at work, I get a broken image, on Firefox at home I get text explaining what the link (if it were there) would do.

I also can’t find where to set my admin settings to level 10 – I use Yahoo Webhosting, so perhaps this is part of the issue. I read the link to Cynthia’s blog and couldn’t figure out what to change or where.

Feeling rather dumb at the moment – I love the idea, though!!

I added your plugin on the site listed, but for the life of me I can’t make it click. I have been reading all the comments here and at ppp forum to see if I can find out why it doesn’t work for me. I admit I’m not technically inclined. Can you help? Thanks a lot…Jude

Hello there.. I finally figured it out after much concentration on my part and it works fine. I have just commented 50 times to myself now I have to go delete all my comments.
Thanks Alot,
Jude

@Jill: The broken image seems to indicate the the plugin and associated image are in the wrong folder. When you open up the ZIP make sure you keep the same directory structure .. i.e. the image should be under the comment-email-responder folder. if you still have problems drop me a line on my contact page and I’ll see if I can help further

     Owen on August 16th, 2007

@Jude: Glad you managed to sort it out. Would you mind sharing what the problem was and how you solved it ?

aha. for some reason, I thought the files needed to be uploaded into /plugins without the folder. Duh.

It works. Aha. Misadventures recorded here (none of which are our lovely host’s fault – it’s a great plugin!).
