Support » Fixing WordPress » multpile email adresses in general settings

  • when setting up wordpress, i entered 2 email adresses in general settings, so both of the adresses could revieve notifications from the wordpress installation. this worked for sometime, but recently i realized that one adress does not receive the notifications anymore – maybe due to a version upgrade of wp.
    now everytime i enter the 2 adresses like this:

    adress1@url.xy; adress2@url.za

    or this:

    adress1@url.xy, adress2@url.za

    and save it, the adresses are displayed in the backend and in the database like this:

    adress1@url.xyadress2url.za

    i read about this problem on several websites, but either these posts were already several years old or there was no solution at the end.
    i hope someone finally can help me and give me advice to solve this problem?

  • I’m pretty sure you can just go in the database, and modify the table directly, as you did in your second snippet above:

    adress1@url.xy, adress2@url.za

    The table would be wp_options and I think the entry is admin_email or something like that.

    WordPress probably runs validation on that input field… and doesn’t take into account multiple email addresses.
