Subscribe to Comments is a robust plugin that enables commenters to sign up for e-mail notification of subsequent entries. The plugin includes a full-featured subscription manager that your commenters can use to unsubscribe to certain posts, block all notifications, or even change their notification e-mail address! |

1. Put subscribe-to-comments.php into [wordpress_dir]/wp-content/plugins/ |
|---|
| 17 |
2. Go into the WordPress admin interface and activate the plugin |
|---|
| 18 |
3. Optional: if your WordPress theme doesn't have the comment_form hook, or if you would like to manually determine where in your comments form the subscribe checkbox appears, enter this where you would like it: `<?php show_subscription_checkbox(); ?>` |
|---|

4. Optional: If you would like to enable users to subscribe to comments without having to first leave a comment, place this somewhere in your template, but make sure it is **outside the comments form**. A good place would be right after the ending `</form>` tag for the comments form: `<?php show_manual_subscription_form(); ?>` |

1. Log out of WordPress |
|---|
| 26 |
2. Leave a comment on an entry and check the comment subscription box, using an e-mail that is NOT the WP admin e-mail address or the e-mail address of the author of the post. |
|---|
| 27 |
3. Leave a second comment using a different e-mail address than the one you used in step 2 (it can be a bogus address). |
|---|
| 28 |
4. This should trigger a notification to the first address you used. |

= I'd like the subscription checkbox to be checked by default. Can I do that? = |

Not anymore. But the checkbox status will be remembered on a per-user basis. |

Try unchecking the CSS "clear" option. Beyond that, you're on your own with CSS positioning. |
