Description
Author Change Notifier (ACN): If you run a business directory or a classifieds website and you want to give the advertizers the ability to claim other posts in the website then this plugin is right for you. Once you change the author/owner/user who originally created the post, this plugin will send custom email notifications to the previous as well as the new author/owner/user who now has control over the post or listing. Notice that this is just a NOTIFICATION plugin, it is not an A-Z solution for claiming posts. You can create a custom form using other plugins to allow your users to send you claims. Then once you manually modify the author of the post, ACN will step in and notify the previous and new author of the change.
ACN features:
1. Custom email subject and text to be sent to the previous author
2. Custom email subject and text to be sent to the new author
3. Placeholders inside email text like: %post_title%, %new_author_email%, etc. Those will be replaced with actual values once the emails are sent.
you put the stable version, in order to eliminate any doubt.
