FAQ
- My plugin still sends mail via the mail() function
-
If other plugins you’re using are not coded to use the wp_mail() function but instead call PHP’s mail() function directly, they will bypass the settings of this plugin. Normally, you can edit the other plugins and simply replace the
mail(
calls withwp_mail(
(just adding wp_ in front) and this will work. I’ve tested this on a couple of plugins and it works, but it may not work on all plugins. - Will this plugin work with WordPress versions less than 2.7?
-
No. WordPress 2.7 changed the way options were updated, so the options page will only work on 2.7 or later.
- Can I add specific headers or attachments to all sent email from WordPress
-
No you can’t, WordPress do not actually propose those feature, hope it will in a next future ! Be sure, as if it would be available, it would be implemented ASAP 🙂
- Can I change the emails sent content
-
No, the only solution to do this is to override the functions that are located in wp-includes/pluggable.php which contains all these features. It’s up to you, by the way, it looks like hardcoding the WordPrfess Core.
