It is a pain when WordPress needs the ‘edit_posts’ role when you JUST need the Comments SubPanel. Which makes it hard if you want to assign somebody as a simple Comments Moderator.
This plugin will create a special user role called “Comments Moderator” that you can use to create any user account with. They will have access to the Comments SubPanel and all its functions, but nothing else 🙂

Mindvalley Comments Moderator

Create a custom role that enables only Comment Moderation actions and pages.

Custom Comment Notifications allows for the comment email notifications to be customized. This way you can choose what information gets included in the e-mail and 
what information is left out. You can make the e-mails as detailed or as minimal as you desire. Through the use of some given variables, you are able to generate a 
standard e-mail template that will be dynamically generated and sent to your authors and moderators. You can specify a separate template for your authors and another 
for you moderators.
