What the author says it does

With this plugin you can switch the different WordPress notification e-mails on and off, like options as the new user and password change notifications send by WordPress to the administrator and user. Works perfectly in combination with a lot of other plugins!

Watch this nice tut made by Robert Orzanna:

The options you can manage are:

  • New user notification to admin
  • New user notification to user
  • Notify post author
  • Notify moderator
  • Password change notification to admin
  • Password change notification to user
  • E-mail address change notification to user
  • Forgotten password e-mail to user
  • Forgotten password e-mail to administrator
  • Automatic WordPress core update e-mail
  • Automatic WordPress plugin update e-mail
  • Automatic WordPress theme update e-mail
  • Send admin notifications to extra admin e-mail addresses (1.7.0)
  • Send an e-mail to administrators after a user requested to update his or her e-mail address (1.7.0)
  • Send an e-mail to administrators after a user successfully updated his or her e-mail address (1.7.0)
  • Multi-site support! Now you can manage your notification settings in one single environment (1.8.0)
  • Export and import settings (1.8.0)

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

Is it active right away?

Yes, after activating you can go to the settings page and disable or enable the notification e-mails that suits you.

Can I use this plugin for multi-site?

Yes! starting from version 1.8.0 multi-site is supported.

Disabling user notifications does not work

Some other plugins also use their custom notifications which overwrite the core notifications of WordPress. To be sure, please first try the plugin without other plugins installed or at least temporarily disable them.

Latest changelog entry

1.9.2

FIXED: On multisite only the first site got the default settings, so on the other sites all notifications were disabled. A site without settings now gets the default settings.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin. The author takes donations at their donate page.
