    Is there a way to change the default Sender/From? I ask because I just resent an email, and it says it came from “WordPress”.

    Thanks…great plugin!

    Hi Brian,

    Glad you like the plugin! Do you mean you sent an email with a custom ‘from’ header and upon resending it, it reverted back to “WordPress”? If, however you’re asking to set the default ‘from’ heading you can do it by using the wp_mail_from and wp_mail_from_name filters that WordPress already provides.

    Hope that helps!

    Yes, I am refrring to the second part in your answer. That said, where do I access these filters you mentioned to set the mup? I imagine this is super easy, but I’m not familiar with them. Thanks!

    In your theme’s functions.php file you can add this code snippet at the bottom. Just change the values to what you’d like. I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you beyond this so if you’re still struggling I’d recommend grabbing a developer!

    add_filter('wp_mail_from', function($email) {
    return '[email protected]';
});

add_filter('wp_mail_from_name', function($name) {
    return 'WordPress Email System';
});

    Here is the documentation for each filter:
