Weblog Change-- Notifier for Comments
I've just added Notifier Plug-In for Movable Type. What it does is allow commenters on my weblog to check a box and get an email whenever someone else replies to their comment or makes new comments. I've wanted this feature ever since seeing something like it at the Swiftvets Forum.
I used the old version 1.4 of Notifier, since I haven't updated to MT 3.0. The documentation was obscure, and I had to sniff around the User Forums and experiment before I learned that I needed to add the following code to my Individual Archive Entry
LLLinput type="checkbox" name="subscribe"GGG Check here if you want to be notified of new commments in this thread
where LLL represents the lesser-than sign and GGG represents the greater-than sign.
Otherwise, Notifier is ready to accept check marks, but the Commenter has no box to check!
