 * Hello – how do I change the default admin email that gets the new user emails?
   Is there a filter – I see no settings for this plugin

 * Hi [@walterkeener3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/walterkeener3/),
 * Thanks for contacting us,
 * I hope you are doing well, The New User Approve plugin gets an admin email from
   the WordPress default settings which you can find in general settings and you
   can easily change that email but if you don’t want to change that setting and
   want to get new user emails to any other email then you can use this filter “**
   new_user_approve_email_header**“.
 * Please have a look at the [screenshot](https://ibb.co/0BTyrCQ).
 * Thanks & Regards

 * this function is not working – please advise:
 * function send_new_user_approval_email_to_different_address( $headers ) {
   // Replace“
   youremail@example.com” with the email address you want to send the email to$headers[]
   = ‘Bcc: [youremail@example.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-default-admin-email/youremail@example.com?output_format=md)’;
   return $headers;}add_filter( ‘new_user_approve_email_header’, ‘send_new_user_approval_email_to_different_address’);

 * Hi [@walterkeener3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/walterkeener3/),
 * In the free version of the New User Approve, you can use the following snippet
   to change the admin email in all the emails that are sending from this plugin.
 * `add_filter('new_user_approve_email_header',function($headers){ `
 * ` $admin_email = 'admin@admin.com' ; `
 * `$from_name = get_option( 'blogname' ); `
 * `$headers = array( "From: \"{$from_name}\" <{$admin_email}>\n" ); `
 * `return $headers; `
 * `});`
 * Thank you

 * Im sorry – i dont mean the email sending “From” but the email to send “To”.
 * Currently it uses the wordpress settings admin email and I would like to change
   this to another email without changing the wordpress admin email.

 * Hi [@walterkeener3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/walterkeener3/),
 * You can get that setting with a lot of other features in the premium version 
   of the New User Approve plugin. There you can set multiple admins to whom you
   want to send emails.
 * Please have a look at the [screenshot](https://ibb.co/319JgWh).
 * Thank you
