 * Perhaps it’s possible with a hook but I couldn’t see one in the Support tab that
   fit. Is is possible to add an idea author notification when a comment is made
   on an idea?

 * Hi [@tkelley10](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/comment_post](https://codex.wordpress.org/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:

 * 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
