Usually, subscribe to comments section, a plugin for WordPress users, placed below submit button. We can make it more usable to put it above the button. Then, the kind of the text Notify me of follow-up comments via e-mail will be placed directly below the comment box and above submit button. As an open source, WordPress codes are fully customized:
  • Now, login to your dashboard
  • Point the cursor to Plugin menu, choose Editor
  • Click Subscribe to Comments plugin
  • Find this line: 
    show_subscription_checkbox
  • Copy the code (save automatically to clipboard or paste to any text editor)
  • Point the cursor to the Appearance menu, then click Editor
  • Edit comments.php file
  • Paste the code between comment textarea and submit button section, and make it like below: 
    <?php show_subscription_checkbox(); ?>
  • Press Update file button.
Done. Take a look with another browser or log out first. This blog tips is part of usability of comment form design (Dani Iswara .Net). :) Just unessential weblog
