## Description

**WP NotifyComment** is a very simple single pluggable function plugin with no widget
interface. A mail is sent to the moderator when a new comment is posted, to alert
him that moderation is awaited. This function was originally working on the first
WordPress versions and then has behaved erratically after a change in code (malformed
header).

## Installation

To install the **WP NotifyComment** plugin just follow this simple 5-step recipe:

 1. Download the plugin and expand it to an empty directory of your local disk drive.
 2. Copy the local _wp-notify-comment_ folder created by the unzipper onto your server
    plugins folder (_wp-content/plugins/_).
 3. Login into the WordPress administration area and click on the _Plugins_ left menu.
    Expand the _Installed_ view.
 4. Locate the _NotifyComment_ plugin and click on the _Activate_ link. Check that 
    the plugin is actually listed as activated.
 5. You are done, check now a comment is sent if you post a comment (not being logged
    as administrator).

More information on this widget utilization can be found [there](http://www.photos-dauphine.com/wp-notify-comment).

## FAQ

  What is this plugin fixing in the original pluggable function ?

The mail header formatted by the standard _wp\_notify\_postauthor_ function is empty
instead of containing the required fields. This plugin fills the fields correctly.

  Is there any configuration required in the admin panel ?

Nope. Nothing other than activating the plugin itself.
