They can subscribe to the comments RSS, for instance http://yoursite.com/post/feed. You can put a link to the comments feed using
<?php get_comments_feed_link('$post_id'); ?> More on that here.
Hmm…not really the same thing cos then they’d get a feed of ALL comments, right? That would probably annoy people more than help them. I was more looking for something where you’d get notified on replies only to your own comments. But thanks for the tip anyways!

Hi!
I’ve just noticed today that the newer versions of WP (rather awesomely) adds the feature of nested/threaded replies to comments. Well done! I’m wondering though… is there a way to let the user/poster be sent a notification when I reply? I can’t seem to find one and the only plugin I’ve found doesn’t appear to be working. I rather hope there is some way because it seems it’d be a tad pointless to reply to comments if the people who left the comments won’t know you’ve replies.
Thanks in advance!
