<p>MoodModerator is a powerful WordPress plugin that uses artificial intelligence to analyze the sentiment of comments on your website. It automatically detects the tone of comments (Friendly, Toxic, Sarcastic, Questioning, Angry, Neutral, etc.) and can automatically hold negative comments for moderation.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>AI-Powered Sentiment Analysis</strong> – Uses OpenAI’s GPT-4o-mini for accurate tone detection</li>
<li><strong>Automatic Moderation</strong> – Hold negative comments for review based on configurable strictness levels</li>
<li><strong>Hybrid Tone Approach</strong> – Combines predefined tones with AI-suggested new tones</li>
<li><strong>Comprehensive Analytics</strong> – View sentiment breakdown by post and overall statistics</li>
<li><strong>Dashboard Widget</strong> – 30-day sentiment summary right on your WordPress dashboard</li>
<li><strong>Comments Table Integration</strong> – See tone badges directly in your Comments admin table</li>
<li><strong>Posts Table Integration</strong> – View average sentiment for each post at a glance</li>
<li><strong>Advanced Caching</strong> – Minimizes API costs by caching sentiment results</li>
<li><strong>Detailed Logging</strong> – Track all API calls, errors, and moderation decisions</li>
<li><strong>Configurable Strictness Levels</strong>:
<ul>
<li><strong>Low</strong> – Only hold Toxic and Angry comments</li>
<li><strong>Medium</strong> – Hold Toxic, Angry, and Sarcastic comments (Recommended)</li>
<li><strong>High</strong> – Hold all except Friendly, Questioning, and Neutral</li>
<li><strong>Custom</strong> – Choose specific tones to auto-hold</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>How It Works</h3>
<ol>
<li>When a comment is submitted, MoodModerator sends it to OpenAI for analysis</li>
<li>The AI returns a tone classification and confidence score</li>
<li>Based on your strictness settings, the plugin decides whether to hold the comment</li>
<li>Sentiment data is saved and displayed throughout the WordPress admin</li>
<li>You can review held comments and make final moderation decisions</li>
</ol>

MoodModerator – AI Comment Moderation & Sentiment Analysis

Automatically detect and moderate negative comments using AI. Keep your WordPress community positive with intelligent comment moderation.

Rahul Mukherjee

<p>Currently WordPress only sends an email to the email address entered in the Options->General->E-mail address field when any new comment is submitted or that comment is awaiting moderation (depending on what you have selected for the comment moderation options in your installation).</p>
<p>For those of us who need more than one email address to be notified, no solution existed.  Until now. Comments Notifier was developed to address this problem.</p>
<p>Uses:</p>
<ul>
<li>If you have more than one person modding your site , they can now receive emails alerting them that new comments are awaiting moderation.</li>
<li>Send general comment notifications to yourself at multiple email addresses and also if any new post or page is created or updated then </li>
<li>the email will also work.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Use and Configuration</h3>
<p>Simply enter the email addresses one at a time into the plugin.  Validly formatted email addresses are required.  You may not add the same address twice.  There is no limit on the number of email addresses you can enter, though for the sake of performance, I would recommend that no more than 20 be entered.</p>
<p>In the “Post Comment Notification To Multiple User” section you can configure the plugin to send emails only for comments that require notification, as opposed to all comments.</p>
<p>If you wish to remove an email address, simply click on the “Remove” button beneath the corresponding email address in the “Current Notification List” section of the admin.</p>
