Multiple admins, only one gets emails

  • I am original site admin, I then added 2 more admin accounts. Yet when someone makes a comment or uses contact form, I am the only one to get an email from the website notifying of the event.

    How can I make it so either all admin accounts get the emails…or make it so one of the other admin gets it and not me?

    (I thought about just deleting my admin account, but I have a bunch of articles created and I do not want to lose them. Will I lose them if I delete my account, I could not find this answer. I also do not have the option to change my account from admin to something else since I was first account I guess.)

  • To change the author’s post, you have to learn ID authors.

    Run SQL query in phpMyAdmin:

    UPDATE wp_posts SET post_author = REPLACE ( post_author, ‘1’, ‘2’ );

    Where
    1 – is the ID of the old author
    2 – is the ID of the new author

    Make a copy of the database before!

    to answer your second question, you could create a new admin account for yourself.

    Then delete the old one.

    When you delete an account, it asks who you wish to assign your posts to, you could then assign them to your new account you created
