4 1. Enable module on the Administer > Site Building > Modules
6 2. Grant permission to use this module:
8 http://example.com/admin/user/permissions#module-comment_notify
10 3. Configure the settings for comments, especially
11 -comment moderation on/off
12 -users must leave their contact info (set to yes, or optional)
14 4. Configure this module at Administer > Site configuraiton > Comment Notify
16 -Determine which content types to activate it for
17 -Determine which subscription modes are allowed
18 -Configure the templates for the e-mails
20 5. Set your node-notify settings per user (optional)
21 The module includes a feature to notify the node author of all comments on
22 their nodes. To enable this go to "My account" > Edit (e.g. user/1/edit)
23 and change the settings there.
28 Performance: If you notice that your site is very slow when submitting
29 new comments it is possible that the problem is with sending the mails.
30 One option is to use the Queue Mail module
31 http://drupal.org/project/queue_mail
34 ------------------------
35 Comment Notify is not built to work
36 on sites where other mail related modules are installed (modules like Actions,
37 Notify, Subscriptions, and Organic Groups are popular examples). If you install
38 both Comment Notify and one of these other mail modules on your site in addition
39 to Comment Notify it may send duplicate messages and/or have user interface
40 elements that will appear to be duplicates and confuse your site visitors.
42 The suggested configuration in these instances is to separate Comment Notify and
43 whatever other mail module you have installed. Common ways to separate them are
44 by content type or user permissions.
