 * I’m using WPForms Lite for a basic contact form. For notification emails, is 
   it better to send them only to the site admin, or can I safely add another team
   email too?

 * Hi [@westonasher](https://wordpress.org/support/users/westonasher/) ,
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * Yes, you can absolutely add more email addresses for notifications, you’re not
   limited to only the site administrator email.
 * By default, the notification field uses the `{admin_email}` Smart Tag, which 
   sends emails to your WordPress site’s admin email address. If you’d like notifications
   to go to other team members as well, you can simply add their email addresses
   in the same field.
 * Just separate each email with a comma, for example:
   admin@yourdomain.com
 * If you’d also like the person filling out the form to receive a copy, you can
   include their Email field Smart Tag in the same Send To Email Address field (
   for example `{field_id="1"}` depending on your form). This way, both your team
   and the user will receive the notification.
 * We have a great tutorial on that here: [https://wpforms.com/docs/setup-form-notification-wpforms/](https://wpforms.com/docs/setup-form-notification-wpforms/).
   And if you’d prefer, we have a video that walks through the setup process here:

 * Hi [@westonasher](https://wordpress.org/support/users/westonasher/),
   We haven’t
   heard back from you in a few days, so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread
   for now. But if you’d like us to assist further, please feel welcome to continue
   the conversation.
 * Thanks!
