How authors can get all comment notifications

  • Is there a way for all of a blog’s authors to get comment notifications? I manage a two-person blog, and each of the authors would like to know when the other person’s posts gets comments

  • mbaze,

    I’m having a similar problem (maybe the same problem)and haven’t been able to get any response. First of all I’ll try to answer your question: I’m new to WorldPress Blogs, but I gather there are POSTS and COMMENTS. COMMENTS are UNAPPROVED (not yet APPROVED) and APPROVED. COMMENTS don’t show up on the BLOG or the RSS feed until the author APPROVEs them. If I understand your quesiton correctly all you need to do is set up an RSS feed for the POSTS you want to be notified on, and you will receive a notification when a new COMMENT has been receveived and APPROVED for that POST.

    My question has to do with UNAPPROVED COMMENTS (or COMMENTS just posted but not yet APPROVED. I am the author and I want to be notified by RSS of UNAPPROVED comments so I can then go in and approve them. OR I would like to be able to remove the APPROVAL constraint on comments and accept them all as APPROVED. Do you know how to do that? …[email protected]

    mbaze, I found that under OPTIONS and DISCUSSION you can configure WorkPress to send you an EMAIL under a variety of conditions when COMMENTS are posted. This solved my problem. I’d suggest you take a look. It might be able to solve yours also…Bill!

    Yes, I’m familiar with that. It doesn’t solve the fundamental problem of notifying all authors when a comment comes in.
