• I am no longer receiving emails notifying me when there is a comment on my blog. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

  • Do you have spam fighting plugins activated on your site. If yes then please disable them one by one.

    Check site stats and traffic on your website as well.

    The only plugin I have that is related to spam is Askimet.

    What do you mean by checking site stats and traffic? This issue has been going on for a while and nothing in regards to stats/traffic was different before or after this problem
    Thanks for the help!

    Go to Dashboard>Settings>Discusion and see if the settings are right to make you recieve the email on comments

    All of those are checked below.

    E-mail me whenever
    Anyone posts a comment
    A comment is held for moderation
    Someone likes one of my posts

    Yet me, nor any of the other 3 members who write posts ever get notified of comments. I won’t even go into the fact that I receive every single like notification instead of the actual post creator receiving that email.

    Are you getting other emails from your website, like when a user fills out contact form and other things. Please check it.

    If you are unable to recieve such requests as well, there might be something wrong with SMTP of your site.

    You can also use Mandrill

    Try using other plugins like Disqus for comments

    I don’t have a form for them to fill out. But I do receive notifications for every like on a post that we get (regardless if I am the author of the post or not).
    I don’t receive notifications anymore for – comments, new followers, new email address followers.

    And all of our posts that get sent out by email subscription are always received by the recipient.

    Going to look at the link right now, thank you SO much!!

    Just to clarify – this plugin will not affect or change how posts are emailed to email subscribers correct?
