   Hi Guys,

   The title pretty much says it all.

   I've just setup a user registration system for content on my site and I don't want my emails to be from 'WordPress'.

   Is there a way to set it as my blog name?

   Thanks.

   you could use a plugin, for instance: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/new-user-email-set-up/
   (i do not use any myself)

   or, you could put some code like this into functions.php of your theme:

   //notification mail email and name change
   
   add_filter('wp_mail_from','custom_email_from');
   
   function custom_email_from($mail) {
   // use the original admin email for notifications; adjust the number for different user id
   $user_info = get_userdata(1);
   $email = $user_info->user_email;
   if($email) $mail = $email;
   return $mail;
   }
   
   add_filter('wp_mail_from_name','custom_email_from_name');
   
   function custom_email_from_name($name) {
   // set a custom name for notifications
   $name = 'put your name here';
   return $name;
   }

   Thanks alchymyth,

   I'll try the code to keep the resources down!

   Thanks.
