sweet! thanks

well done ! thanks

it didn’t work for me… when i chsnge the code above and then try to open my popup-comment-window i get this:

An error occurred: syntax error at lib/MT/App/Comments.pm line 145, near “}” (Might be a runaway multi-line << string starting on line 124) Compilation failed in require at mt-comments.cgi line 21.

It sounds like your code is incorrect. Make sure you don’t have a semicolon (;) before the “unless” and that you do have one at the end of the line. You might want to copy the code directly from this page and paste it into your code. All the code should be one a single line. If there are line breaks, remove them.

Awesome! Thanks!

I just upgraded to MT 2.6 and ran into trouble when I tried hacking the comments.pm file.

For this to work in 2.6 the line should read…

MT::Mail->send(\%head, $body) unless $author->email eq $comment->email;

It’s just a small change from << to $ in front of ‘body’. Just thought I’d pass the info along.

Thanks for this hack! Worked a treat! (Its on line 152 in 2.6…)

Has anything been done to fix this for MT 3x? I’m getting sooooo tired of getting my own comments.

I’d really appreciate an answer and I’d more appreciate a posted fix!

Thanks.

i don’t know how dirty it is, but i changed lines 471 and 472 in lib/MT/App/Comments.pm (MT-3.15) from:

    MT::Mail->send(\%head, $body) 
        or return $app->handle_error(MT::Mail->errstr());

to

   MT::Mail->send(\%head, $body) unless $author->email eq $comment->email;
       # or return $app->handle_error(MT::Mail->errstr());

to get rid of the annoying self-comments.

i’m sure you could just use a filter in your email app, too.

Heather’s mod worked for me. thanks heather and adam!

FYI, if you would like to do this in MT v.3.1x and have MT-Blacklist installed, the file to modify is called Submission.pm, located in your plugins folder: plugins/Blacklist/lib/Blacklist/App/Submission.pm

Around line 797 (almost the very bottom of the file) you can use Heather’s mod above.

Seems to work for me. Hope someone else finds this useful!

FYI, its lines 578-579 in MT 3.2
