About

The Author Comment Replies plugin filters WordPress’s normal comment replies handling to only allow users with authoring privileges to reply directly to comments. This helps keep your user comments stay in clean linear flow, while giving you and your authors the ability to reply directly to certain comments.

We originally developed the Author Comment Reply plugin solely for use on Sony Computer Entertainment America’s (SCEA) PlayStation.Blog to visually associate reader comments and author responses. Thanks to SCEA’s desire to contribute back to the WordPress community, we are able to offer this plugin for public consumption.
