Comment Notify Signups

Comment Notify is a lightweight tool to send notification e-mails to visitors about new comments on pages where they have commented. Comment Notify works for both registered and anonymous users.

Other notification modules do not allow notifications for anonymous users. Comment Notify fills that niche. (Read post comparing the different comment notification modules.)

Providing comment notifications for anonymous users is an important tool in bringing anonymous users back to your site, which helps convert anonymous users to registered users. Anonymous comment notification is a critical tool in building a blog comment community; all the major blogging platforms include this functionality.

Features

  • Mail registered and anonymous users about comment follow-ups
  • Allow users to unsubscribe from notifications on a specific post with a single click
  • Allow registered users to preset their follow-up setting in their profile
  • Users can choose to get notifications about all comments on a node or just replies to their comment
  • Registered authors can get notifications about comments on their nodes

Project Roadmap

Comment Notify is under active development. Interest in the module has intensified as Drupal project lead Dries Buytaert has taken interest in Comment Notify. Read and follow the discussion about Dries' search for a notification module.

#D7CX: I pledge that Comment notify will have a full Drupal 7 release on the day that Drupal 7 is released.

Recommended Companion Modules

  • comment_info for keeping commenter credentials persistent in a cookie. This feature is in the core of Drupal 6.x.
  • Queue Mail For better performance when submitting new comments.

5.x Maintainer

I no longer maintain the 5.x branch. If you re interested in becoming a co-maintainer specifically in backporting fixes to 5.x, contact me.
