One of the best features of WordPress is its plugins feature and after moving to WordPress I’ve collected so many plugins. Some of these are very useful and handy that I will share with you. In this post I’ve listed 11 best comments related plugins. You must use these plugins to make your WordPress blog more user friendly.
-
Top Commentators Widget :

Top commentators Widget is the must have plugin for any WordPress blog to receive more comments. This plugin also helps the commentators to receive a link back from the blog for some days. -
Subscribe To Comments :
Subscribe to comments plugin helps your visitors to sign up for an email notification of subsequent entries. It also provides options for commentators to unsubscribe to certain posts, block all notifications, or even change their notification e-mail address.
-
CommentLuv :

This one is one of my favorite plugins. You can show love to your commentators by giving a link to their last blog post using CommentLuv plugin. It also helps you to get more comments on your articles. So it is beneficial for both the author and readers of the blog.Link : CommentLuv WordPress Plugin
-
Ajax Comments :
This pluign enable your readers to coment quickly without leaving or refreshing the page.
-
WordPress Thread Comment :

It enables users to reply on a exist comment, and the discussion will be displayed threaded or nested. -
WP Comment Auto Responder :

You might have received a thankful notification after leaving a comment on some blogs. WP Comment Auto Responder does this task for you. Its the nice way to say thanks to your commentators. -
Edit Comments XT :
Its a simple yet useful plugin that allows your commentators to edit their own comments. The commentators can only edit the comment with the time specified by you.
-
Thank Me Later :

Thank Me Later is a plug-in which will automatically send a thank you email to readers after they post a comment. It can be set to send the message a time after the comment was posted (an hour, day, week, month, etc). It is effective as it will remind readers of their comments and gets them engaged with future discussion and your blog. It is useful to attract “one-time” readers who will post one comment, and then forget about your blog. -
Recent Comments :
This simple plugin displays a list of your blog’s newest comments.
-
@Reply w comment preview :

This plugin allows you to add Twitter-like @reply links to comments, including a preview of the comment replied to. When clicked, those links insert the author name and a link to the comment you are replying to in the textarea, and adds a Preview of the original comment to the @Reply. -
WP Twitip ID :
WP Twitip ID adds a field to the comment form for a user to add their twitter username. Once published, their comment will display a link to follow them on twitter.

{ 74 comments… read them below or add one }
huge list. :0
thanks, I was looking auto responder plugin but did not know its name, haven’t tried rest.
thanks for the list.
Hello Simrandeep, could you please tell me what a comment plugin you are using. I like this “reply”.
You can enable the threaded comments option from your wordpress admin panel if you want to turn on the reply feature
Nice plugins
@Gagan,
There is another plugin I used long back called comment relish [http://www.justinshattuck.com/2007/03/19/comment-relish-wordpress-plugin/]. The problem with such plugins is that they are said to consume much resources.
Nice. WP Twitip ID and thank me later seem to be interesting and are new for me. Thumbs up. Good article.
Nice collection .. i used Ajax Comments plugins but won’t worked for me anyway thx for sharing
Nice choice of plugins.
You need to customize your theme, specially the Header. Looks odd on widescreen.
Hi,
I have 3 plug-ins that you have mentioned above.
I don’t think threaded comments plug-in is a must as most of the themes today come with that enabled already. It’s probably used on old themes which are not supported, just my opinion.
Otherwise, a nice collection of plug-ins. Comments play such and important role on a blog or site. Webmasters must ensure that the comment section is readable and correct.
Thanks for sharing
Great list dude.
But i don’t like to receive thanks mails from WP Comment Auto Responder. I feel its just killing my time to monitor all those mails
But good for new bloggers to retain the readers.
Great list.
The top commentator plugin can lead to comment hijacking.Ajax comment and commentluv plugin are great.
Good List for making your blog more user friendly! I use top commenter and recent comments! Have not looked at the rest yet
Cheers

This is great. I didn’t know there was a plug in that would send out a thank you email to people that have left comments. I like the idea of it going out a couple days later to remind them about your blog and that they left comments.
Thanks – Heidi

hi ,i like most of the plugins, wp comment auto responder and thank me later provide the same function , isn’t it? For the comment plugin wise, i prefer disqus to comment luv
I want to thank you for yet another wonderful article. I am always on the look-out for great WordPress tips to recommend to my own readers. Thanks for taking the time to write this article. It’s exactly what I was looking for. Truly great post.
I love using Comment Luv on my sites…. I think its one of the best out there.
Really good post, thank you.
I am looking for an ajax posting comments.but couldnt find a good one.
You can try the Ajax Comments 2.09 plugin by Mike Smullin. Link – http://www.mikesmullin.com/wordpress_plugins/ajax-comments-209/
Thanks for this complete list of comment-related plugins. I am in love with Commentluv and Keywordluv, as they support the visiting blog owner a lot. Activity around a blog should increase exponentially when rewards are made available to visitors and when exciting competitions are run on the blog. GD, Australia
