   I don’t know what happened but it no longer notifies anyone. I thought maybe the new version would fix it, but it still does not send out any emails. It used to work, so all I can think of is one of the upgrades to 1.5. I am currently running 1.5.1.3.

   Any help?

   Uncooperative,

   I tested it out on your site and it is working for me! I got the notification 3 seconds after leaving a comment. One of many things could be preventing you from getting notifications:

   1) you won’t ever get notified of your own comments… so you’ll have to use 2 addresses to test out the functionality (one to subscribe, one to trigger an e-mail)
   2) you can’t subscribe to comments using the e-mail address of the author of the post, or the e-mail address of the wordpress administrator.
   3) could be that the e-mails are getting blocked by a spam filter or an ISP

   It turns out it just took an unbelievable long time for the email to reach its destination. I mean like 5-10 minutes. So it through me off while checking it. Sorry for the false alarm.

   I really enjoy your plugin. I like a lot plugins written in that way, just install and go

   That’s a shame I cannot use it, since it doesn’t work with php 5; it’s coded in the php 4 way ! I had to install the php 4 to access the admin’s options, which aren’t displayed when using php 5 :

   Fatal error: Cannot redeclare show_subscription_checkbox() (previously declared in E:HomepagePsykotikblogwp-contentpluginssubscribe-to-comments.php:25) in E:HomepagePsykotikblogwp-contentpluginssubscribe-to-comments.php on line 69

   Do you think that by any chance, you could code your plugin for php 5 ?

    [...] 4、邮件订阅跟踪某个帖子的后续评论。当读者在某个帖子中留言之后，可能很关心这个帖子后面的讨论情况（比如对自己评论的回复）。在很多网志上，没有技术手段进行跟踪，只能评论者自己定期不定期地打开或刷新该页面来看是否有新评论。WordPress系统中缺省下有一个通过RSS订阅该帖评论的功能可以实现这个目的，但由于RSS本身的特点和人们对它的熟悉度，相信很少人用到这个功能。现在我在自己站点上安装了这个Subscribe To Comments，在评论者提交评论时选择了邮件订阅，则可以通过最普遍应用的邮件方式，接收到这个帖子中的后续讨论内容，而订阅者自然也可以根据后面的内容决定是否继续参与回复了。（如果你使用像Gmail这样的邮箱，并使用Gtalk或者Gmail Notifycation工具的话，实际上你可以实时获取所关注的话题讨论进程了。） [...]

    Hey guys!

    I’ve found a bug inside the code:

    Being blog-admin and clicking the “Manage subscriptions”-link will result in an URI which has [...].php?&ref=[...]

    So I digged through the code and changed the “manage_link”-function inside the “subscribe-to-comments.php”-file to the following:

    function manage_link($email=”, $html=true, $echo=true)
    {
    $link = get_bloginfo(’wpurl’) . ‘/wp-subscription-manager.php?’;

    if ($html)
    $amp = ‘amp;’;

    $link .= ‘ref=http://’ . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

    if($email != ‘admin’)
    $link .= ‘&’ . $amp . ‘email=’ . $email . ‘&’ . $amp . ‘key=’ . md5($email . DB_PASSWORD);

    if ($echo)
    echo $link;
    else
    return $link;
    }

    HTH,
    Martin..

    Thanks Martin. There’s no real negative consequence from ?&ref= but it does remind me that I should be using WordPress’ build-in functions for adding to the query string… should shrink the code down to use that.

    Closing comments here, because the plugin now has its own page.
