Little quick tip for users of the CMS<\/strong> WordPress<\/strong>, tired of seeing the function wp_mail<\/strong> send automatic messages to their users under the email "\u00a0WordPress@votredomaine.com<\/strong>\u201c. To overcome this problem, there are unfortunately no settings in the backend of WordPress<\/strong>. So, here is a little filter seen on Butterblog.com<\/a>, the author of the WP-Members plugin, which allows you to customize not only the default WordPress sending email address, but also the sender name<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We will filter wp_mail_from<\/strong> And wp_mail_from_name<\/strong>, by editing the file functions.php<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

functions.php:<\/p>\n

add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'my_mail_from' );<\/em>
function my_mail_from($email)<\/em>
{ return 'myemail@mydomain.com'; }<\/em>
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'my_mail_from_name' );<\/em>
function my_mail_from_name($name)<\/em>
{ return 'My Name'; }<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
