Multiple admin email addresses

scrub that last one. It didn’t work. Sorry.

What I’ve done in the past is to set up a gmail account for the admin account. Have the gmail address forward the email to all the addresses you want.

Obviously you could do this with other email services than gmail, and even your regular domain email server if it allows forwarding.

Also, I use Dagon Design’s Form Mailer, one of my favorite plugins, and well-supported and documented. This plugin allows multiple email addresses as recipients of contact forms, etc., so at least for those purposes it makes it easy to have multiple recipients.

I am having trouble with the second part of the above code. I don’t fully understand this last part in the pluggable.php file. Is someone able to tell me exactly what to do to follow this instruction? Thanks.

// original function code here except for last return line
}
return $result

WT,

I got the code above by stonicus to work, basically you are only editing the top part of a long section of code, the wp_mail function. The last return line is a ways down and so you are pasting the original code into the modified code that stonicus provided EXCEPT that last return $result line. You need to add a } and then add return $result on the next line.

The wp_mail function of the pluggaple.php code should look like this:

function wp_mail( $targets, $subject, $message, $headers = '' )
{
	$tars = explode(",", $targets);
	foreach($tars as $to)
	{
// Compact the input, apply the filters, and extract them back out
	extract( apply_filters( 'wp_mail', compact( 'to', 'subject', 'message', 'headers' ) ) );

	global $phpmailer;

	// (Re)create it, if it's gone missing
	if ( !is_object( $phpmailer ) || !is_a( $phpmailer, 'PHPMailer' ) ) {
		require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-phpmailer.php';
		require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-smtp.php';
		$phpmailer = new PHPMailer();
	}

	// Headers
	if ( empty( $headers ) ) {
		$headers = array();
	} elseif ( !is_array( $headers ) ) {
		// Explode the headers out, so this function can take both
		// string headers and an array of headers.
		$tempheaders = (array) explode( "\n", $headers );
		$headers = array();

		// If it's actually got contents
		if ( !empty( $tempheaders ) ) {
			// Iterate through the raw headers
			foreach ( $tempheaders as $header ) {
				if ( strpos($header, ':') === false )
					continue;
				// Explode them out
				list( $name, $content ) = explode( ':', trim( $header ), 2 );

				// Cleanup crew
				$name = trim( $name );
				$content = trim( $content );

				// Mainly for legacy -- process a From: header if it's there
				if ( 'from' == strtolower($name) ) {
					if ( strpos($content, '<' ) !== false ) {
						// So... making my life hard again?
						$from_name = substr( $content, 0, strpos( $content, '<' ) - 1 );
						$from_name = str_replace( '"', '', $from_name );
						$from_name = trim( $from_name );

						$from_email = substr( $content, strpos( $content, '<' ) + 1 );
						$from_email = str_replace( '>', '', $from_email );
						$from_email = trim( $from_email );
					} else {
						$from_name = trim( $content );
					}
				} elseif ( 'content-type' == strtolower($name) ) {
					if ( strpos( $content,';' ) !== false ) {
						list( $type, $charset ) = explode( ';', $content );
						$content_type = trim( $type );
						$charset = trim( str_replace( array( 'charset=', '"' ), '', $charset ) );
					} else {
						$content_type = trim( $content );
					}
				} elseif ( 'cc' == strtolower($name) ) {
					$cc = explode(",", $content);
				} elseif ( 'bcc' == strtolower($name) ) {
					$bcc = explode(",", $content);
				} else {
					// Add it to our grand headers array
					$headers[trim( $name )] = trim( $content );
				}
			}
		}
