add_filter('scn_autoresponder_to_author', '__return_true'); 

Optionally, you can also turn off default plugin functionality:

add_filter('scn_notify_parent_author', '__return_false'); 

The title and content of the autoresponder can be personalized:

function custom_scn_autoresponder_subject($subject, $comment_object) { return $subject; } add_filter('scn_autoresponder_subject', 'custom_scn_autoresponder_subject', 10, 2); function custom_scn_autoresponder_body($body, $comment_object) { return $body; } add_filter('scn_autoresponder_body', 'custom_scn_autoresponder_body', 10, 2);
