Confirmation Email Not Sending

    Hi There,

    I have recently found out that my site is not a WordPress.com site, so after doing some more research on the matter, I’m assuming its a www.ads-software.com site as I host it on hostgator.

    I am trying to change the email address associated with the site to [ Redacted, support is not offered via email, Skype, instant messenger, etc. ] but I am not receiving the confirmation email for this and in my User section on my dashboard it says ‘There is a pending change of your email to [ Redacted, support is not offered via email, Skype, instant messenger, etc. ]‘. Please advise?

    I have checked all tabs in my email and try to send the confirmation more than once.

    Thank you,
    Rasha

    Hi @firoz

    I am not getting any error screen.

    I am just not receiving the confirmation email to enable me to change my email.

    Thanks,

    Hi @simplyrasha

    Usually it takes time but you will receive it eventually.

    You can also try by editing your function.php file inside your WP admin.

    Inside your WP admin; go to Appearance -> Editor. On the right side of the page you will see the list of pages. Find function.php and copy and past the code below at the end of the file. Replace [email protected] with your email address. 

    add_filter('wp_mail_from', 'new_mail_from');
add_filter('wp_mail_from_name', 'new_mail_from_name');

function new_mail_from($old) 
{
    return '[email protected]';
}

function new_mail_from_name($old) 
{
    return 'Your Name or Your Website';
}

    As you have written above you are not getting the confirmation email, can you please check with your hosting provider for email issue?

    Hi @firoz2456

    I contacted my host and they sorted it out.
