How to change WordPress Sender name

Replace the default "WordPress" sender name on the emails your site sends out, so notifications arrive from your own brand instead.

1 minute read

By default, all emails sent by WordPress have the Sender Name set as "WordPress".

A single row in an inbox list: the sender name reads WordPress, highlighted in yellow, next to the subject "Your ad is pending approval".
The sender name is the first thing recipients see beside the subject line.

The Mail tab of Listivo Panel > Notifications, with an empty Name field between the Mail Footer and Email fields and a Save Changes button underneath.
