Two Admins?

Hi all,

I have my client set up as an admin with their email. I have just set myself up as an admin as well, with my email, as I would also like to monitor notifications and what not. Will this work, or will the notifications only go to the clients email?

Thanks in advance!

By default, notifications only go out to the original admin email address.

Okay, had a feeling that might be it.

Any way to get around that?

Thanks!

Try a comma separated list of emails (in your admin settings -> genearal -> email address), with a space after the comma… like this:
```
[email protected], [email protected]
```

Awesome! I’ll give that a try.

Thank you!

Sure. Please let me know, out of curiosity 😉

Another option would be set up a general domain-based email address, use that in WordPress and then forward any emails to that address to your 2 admins.

That one might work, esmi. I tried Josh’s way, but it was made into a super email, something like: [email protected][email protected]

Thanks for you help!

Take a look at this post:

It seems possible if you edit it directly in the DB.

I guess WP runs a filter on the admin setting… disallowing multiple emails.

Going directly to the DB should bypass that filter.

Thanks Josh! Good find!

I’ll have to try that in the next few days. I’m having template issues right now, so I don’t want to tempt the fates any more 🙂

Thanks again!
