What It Does

This plugin allows you to manage who receives notifications for new comments and moderation. By default, the post author gets notified when a comment is submitted, and the site admin receives moderation notifications. This can be cumbersome for sites with multiple authors.

With this plugin, you can configure it to send moderation notifications only to the post author. If the post author lacks moderation rights or a valid email, notifications will still go to the site admin.

The plugin is compatible with WordPress Multisite and can be activated on a per-site basis or as a must-use plugin. Future updates will include additional options for customization.
