 * Hi, I installed this yesterday and it works great and the config options are 
   awesome.
 * Is there a way to prevent WordPress sending me as the administrator of the website
   emails every time someone changes a password?

 * I’ve not tested this myself, but using the plugin Code Snippets, create a snippet
   with the following code:
 *     ```
       if (!function_exists('wp_password_change_notification')) {
       	function wp_password_change_notification($user) {
       		return;
       	}
       }
       ```

 * Might not work in your setup. Have a search on Google for a different solution.

 * Thanks! I also tried [this](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/after_password_reset/):
 * `remove_action( 'after_password_reset', 'wp_password_change_notification' );`
 * No error, but the emails kept getting sent. I’ll keep looking…
