I haven’t used it yet, but you can accomplish this with Jetpack, which is made (at least partially) by the founders of WordPress. The advantage is that it uses the WordPress.com servers to handle the outgoing mail. This is a big plus because shared servers have throttling limits that only allow you to send a … Read more
One plugin, among several: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/disable-new-user-email-notifications/ You can grab the function out of it and use it directy in functions.php
You can change them using a filter. The filter hooks you want to use are: For the first email message (confirming they really want to reset the password): ‘retrieve_password_title’ ‘retrieve_password_message’ For the follow-up email message (sending the new username and password): ‘password_reset_title’ ‘password_reset_message’ Update: To create and use these filters, put the following or similar … Read more
I was able to override the multi-site notification email by adding these: remove_filter(‘wpmu_signup_user_notification_email’,’admin_created_user_email’); add_filter(‘wpmu_signup_user_notification_email’,<function_name_here>); add_filter(‘wpmu_signup_user_notification’,<function_name_here>); add_filter(‘wpmu_signup_user_notification_subject’,<function_name_here>); Adding the three filters at bottom i.e. email,notification and subject allows you to override the content and the subject of the email.
I would store a transient with a life-time of 24 hours when a post (in some category, I’m using category with ID 333 as an example) is published. Whenever subsequent posts are published, the transient is either updated or recreated if 24 hours has elapsed and the transient has been deleted. Logic Whenever a post … Read more
It looks like after switching code to check get_site_transient(‘update_core’) I have got what I need just action must be executed in a proper priority or a hook (thoughts/suggestions?). Working code below: function core_update_notification(){ global $wp_version; $installed_version = $wp_version; $uc_transient = get_site_transient(‘update_core’); if ( empty($uc_transient->updates) ) return; $updates = $uc_transient->updates; $current_version = $updates[0]->current; if (version_compare($installed_version, $current_version, … Read more
There’s a great article explaining how to hook into 2 filters for this at https://web.archive.org/web/20200216075253/http://www.sourcexpress.com/customize-wordpress-comment-notification-emails/ To send your notifications to a particular user and not the site admin, try this for a user with ID 123: function se_comment_moderation_recipients( $emails, $comment_id ) { $comment = get_comment( $comment_id ); $post = get_post( $comment->comment_post_ID ); $user = get_user_by( … Read more
In your functions.php add: add_filter( ‘auto_core_update_send_email’, ‘__return_false’ );
Here’s an idea: use the save_post hook to set a session containing the message you want to show the user and then redirect to the home page. In the home page template, check for the presence of that session and show the message to the user. Something like this: functions.php: add_action( ‘save_post’, ‘wpse60249_save_post’ ); function … Read more
I would do this when you call add_options_page(), not later. It’s always better to do this with the supported API instead of playing with the internal structures. The plugin updater periodically checks the plugin status and then saves the result in a transient. This means that it only reads this cached status when the menu … Read more
