I’m in the process of transferring the ownership of this plugin to a new developer, he will address your issue asap.

@camu The new developer hasn’t updated the plugin to fix any issues since you transferred ownership. I’ve forked the plugin to fix many issues here:

I’m happy to take over development of this plugin from @reedyseth or join in and become an additional contributor so that I can update the plugin to fix issues that users have been reporting.

Hello @raamdev Thank you for you disposition by helping to improve the plugin, I had some issues and have to stop the plugin development, but I am back to business. I hope to talk you soon. Regards !!

Hey Raam,

thank you for reaching out to Reedyseth and me, it’s really nice to see that there are people who want to contribute and keep this plugin alive, and actually make it better. Personally I’ve never been a big fan of forks: they divide the community, create replication of functionality, and ultimately become a waste of time and energy. Time and energy that could instead be consolidated and spent to make the ORIGINAL product better.

To both of you (but Reedyseth already knows it), please consider me available if you have any questions regarding STCR or the repository. According the the number of downloads of the latest update, it has the potential to become a very popular piece of code, at the same level of Disqus and the like. It would be great to see both of you collaborate to make this happen!

Thank you,
Camu

Thanks a lot for your time Camu ??

@camu @reedyseth

I agree with you on forks; if I can avoid them, I always do. I would rather contribute to an existing plugin and improve that over releasing a fork.

I reached out more than 6 months ago regarding a major bug in this plugin related to users always receiving all replies even if they selected replies only and I submitted several fixes via a GitHub Pull Request to the GitHub account duechiacchiere (which no longer exists) where this plugin had been hosted. I was ignored.

I’ve had many people request my fixed version of this plugin. I pointed them to my modified copy of Subscribe to Comments Reloaded in GitHub, but then when I fixed subsequent bugs, they had no easy way of updating. So, I finally decided to republish this plugin as WP Comment Subscriptions.

You can see from the changelog here the large number of things I’ve fixed since v2.0.6 of this plugin:

If one of you wants to add me as a contributor to Subscribe to Comments Reloaded and collaborate with me on the development of Subscribe to Comments Reloaded via GitHub, I will gladly refocus my effort here on this plugin. If you need to discuss in private, you can also email me at raam at raamdev d-o-t com.

@raam Dev, this sounds great. How can I add you as a contributor?

@camu I think you have to add me to the Contributors list in the readme.txt file. You might also need to do this:

A plugin owner, when logged into the plugins directory will see an Admin tab on their plugin page. On that page a contributor can be added or removed.

Right, that’s what I remembered (about the Admin tab) but I don’t see any way to add you from there. Maybe Reedyseth can add you to the readme.txt? He’s now the main contributor, I’m just a supporter ??

Hello @raam, I will add you to the contributors list in a while, I am leaving to work, but as soon as I arrive to my computer I will do so.

You are all set @raamdev.

@reedyseth Thank you! Can you email me so we can talk about how we’ll collaborate? I feel like we’re hijacking this support thread. My email is raam at raamdev d-o-t com.

@reedyseth thank you!
