When a new user registers on my website, which hosts wpForo forums, they receive an email from the email address "wordpress@my-website.com" asking them to set a password for their account.

How do I change the "wordpress" part of the email address "wordpress@my-website.com" to something else?

Thanks a lot for any assistance you can provide.

Hi @hereamack,

navigate to Dashboard > wpForo > Settings > Email Settings and check "FROM Name" field

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

Thanks a lot, Chris! I made a stupid mistake. I put two words in that field with a space between them, so the email address defaulted to "wordpress@my-website.com".

Thanks a lot for helping me out. I appreciate it!
