Hi Dave, sorry about the late reply. All my messages seem to be going into spam for some reason… The green text and ball means that the gmail chat user is online. I’m assuming it’s your own email address. Try changing the FROM email address to be something else and use the format “Name ” which should cause it to use the Name in place of Wordpress. Failing that it could be my code… open up the plugin PHP file and replace all instances of wp_mail with mail instead. It should cause the headers to be sent differently.

thanks
Sean

Hey Sean,
Killer plugin! Really cool. It is all working well in WP 3.0.

There is only one thing that I seem to be unable to change.

In my email (gmail) I see a green text “Wordpress” at the top of the email that I have received after registering as a new user as a test. This should be saying something like “custom name to me”

Screen grab of the green text

Screen grab of my settings

NB: the custom name shows up correctly when I view the list of all my messages in gmail. It is only in the email itself that it is not correct.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Dave

@Faydra

Have you tried to edit the “From Email Address” field?

You should enter “Your Blog Name ” in that field

Hi, what other plugins do you have active on the site? If you want to email me directly at barton.sean@gmail.com then we can sort it out for you. Otherwise just deactivate everything and see if it works then. It’s always going to be a process of trial and error with plugins that do this particular job. The trick is to find the offending plugin and update the code without breaking it

Let me know. Thanks!
Sean

Hi Sean,

Firts your plugin is working well, with my version 2.9.2 !
So i did updated the plugin’s settings, made tests, but there were no modifications, my new users still getting wordpress welcome email !
BTW simplepress forum plugin is not installed, WP email plugin too, but user messages plugin is active, so i did deactived it in order to avoid any conflicts against your plugin, unfortunetely new user welcome email still as it is !

I really don’t know what i’m missing, hopefully your help

Thanks in advance

Hi Jon, thanks for the interest! Firstly I would suggest you identify the offending plugin and turn it off temporarily. I suspect wp user registration. If turning one off solves it then let me know and I shall see if i can fix the other plugin for you. Want to email me at barton.sean@gmail.com and I can hopefully sort you out. Am out until this afternoon but happy to help when i return.

thanks
Sean
