WP Private Comment Notes

FAQ

How do I use this plugin?

After activation, a Comment Notes meta box is added to the edit page of a comment. From the meta box you can add and remove comment notes. When adding a comment, you have the option to email the contents of the note to the original commenter.

Who can manage comment notes?

By default, anyone with the moderate_comments capability. This can be changed though a simple filter:

add_filter( 'wp_private_comment_notes_capability', 'rv_wp_private_comment_notes_capability', 10, 2 );
/**
 *  Allow only administrators to manage comment notes
 *  @param $capability (string) - WordPress capability
 *  @param $user_id (int) - User ID to check
 *  @return $capability
 */
function rv_wp_private_comment_notes_capability( $capability, $user_id ) {
    $capability = 'manage_options';
    return $capability;
}

Can I customize the email sent to the original commenter?

Yes. There are a few filters you can use to customize the email’s “From Name/Email,” subject, message and headers. For more, see the send_email() method in wp-private-comment-notes.php.
