Comment Approved

Description

This WordPress plugin will sent out a customizable notification to a user that has left an comment on your site after approval of the comment.

It’s a tiny plugin which I hope to expand in the near future. Let me know if you miss something.

This plugin does what it claims to do, a simple feature but nice to have for commenters on a moderated blog. Also, the plugin author has been responsive to fixing a minor issue. Thanks!
