Hi @tkelley10,
The plugin comments use the standard WordPress comment system because we believe it’s best to try and utilise existing WordPress features as much as possible and it also means that it can be extended by other plugins more easily, for example spam protection of comments etc.
There is this action here: comment_post which you could probably use to build your own: https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/comment_post but I will look into this further and see if I can come up with something. Thanks,
I have looked into this further, from my testing the default comment notification system of WordPress works for the author. Please see here for more information: https://en.support.wordpress.com/comment-notification-email/
I tested this in the plugin and it appears to be working fine.
Yes! Thank you.. we just tested it further and realized it was working, the notifications were getting caught by the SPAM filter. We’ve fixed that now. Thank you again
