Little tip: multiple emails in General Settings > Email Address field

  • I’ve never seen this mentioned anywhere (including in the Codex) but I just tested putting multiple email addresses in the field for a notification address in the General Settings page… and it worked! I separated them with a comma and a space, similar to how you’d do it in an email (like “[email protected], [email protected]”). Anyway, just thought someone might find this useful.

  • I’ll try it asap. It could be very useful. Thanks for sharing this tip!

    Are you sure it works? Writing two addresses there was rejected to my with the following message “The email address entered did not appear to be a valid email address. Please enter a valid email address.“

    I’m using 3.x beta.

    Hi there

    I am using WordPress 3.0 and also got the message
    “The email address entered did not appear to be a valid email address. Please enter a valid email address.”
    I tried seperating the e-mail addresses with a , and a ;
    neither worked.

    thanks

    Yes, I tried to add another email address with a comma and a space and also got “The email address entered did not appear to be a valid email address. Please enter a valid email address.”

    It’s annoying as the site is for a client and I’m unable to receive notification of new users signing up.

    Hmmmm… it would be nice to have a solution.

    I am having the same exact issue.

    Interestingly enough, I had two emails set up in WP 2.9 and they retained their settings when I upgraded to WP 3.0.

    Not sure what to make of it, but a solution would be nice.
