Newsletter Subscribe on Comments

Subscribe on Comments is an addon that adds a checkbox to the standard WordPress comment form, using comment form hooks to register the visitor as a newsletter subscriber during comment submission. In the Newsletter plugin, the add-on lets you set the checkbox as checked or unchecked, single or double opt-in mode, a welcome email, and optional lists, making it useful for blogs that want to capture readers who are already engaged in discussions.
