Not receiving comment notifications after Changing admin email

    I run a blog at https://www.cornerstonetinyhomes.com.

    When I first set up the blog, I used my personal email address, but since then created emails for the staff and then changed the admin email address to one of those.

    I’ve read at least ten support strings on this comment notification problem going back 7 years. I’ve tried all the solutions and none have worked so far.

    I’ve checked the options table in my database and the correct email is there. I’ve checked all the user interface places where emails should be correct, and they all are.

    I’ve checked my host by rechecking other wordpress blogs I have on my same host, and comment notifications work on all of them.

    The only thing I can think of that might be causing this is that I changed the admin email after the initial set up and install.

    I need to receive email notifications when people comment on our blog.

    Please help.

    Yes I have, thanks.

    I am now going back through my plugins and deactivating all then reactivating them one by one – again.

    i say just deactivate them all in one shot. then try your comment notification test. only if it works can you say it’s a plugin conflict. in that case only, activate them all one at a time to find which plugin is the problem.

    and don’t forget to use the default theme when you’ve deactivated all the plugins, to confirm it’s not a theme problem.

    OK.

    This time I very methodically deactivated every plugin and then activated one at a time while commenting on the site.

    Akismet was the culprit!

    Comment notifications are working now.

    Thanks for all your help!

    Great! Kindly mark this topic as resolved. ??
