not working correctly with LoginWP and welcome email

    On a site I manage, the login URL is https://www.mydomain;xyz/door instead of the /wp-login due the use of LoginWP

    Now, when you plugin sends the first message to the user, the Login link and the Password reset link are not working at all because they are pointing to wp-login, that doesn’t exist any more.

    LoginWP is not an option. It must be there to make its job.
    But perhaps you can solve this issue when LoginWP is installed.

    On top of this, when an email is sent, the recipient receives it from “wordpress” instead of from the Site Title.

    WP 6.7.1
    LoginWP 3.0.8.6

    Hi @tormy,
    Thanks for your message.

    The only way to do this at present is to add a regex redirect to ensure that any old/pre-plugin version of the links go to the new login URL.
    This support article, whilst written for another plugin, should help with this: https://betternotificationsforwp.com/documentation/compatibility/paid-memberships-pro/

    If the ‘Set “From” Name & Email, CC, BCC’ field isn’t available for a given notification, you can usually change the from name and email address in your SMTP/SES plugin that sends email from your site. Alternatively, if you don’t have one of these installed, you can use a filter such as the one found on this support document: https://betternotificationsforwp.com/documentation/compatibility/changing-name-email-transactional-notifications/

    Let me know if this helps.

    I will try the Regex in the late afternoon and I will let you know.

    About the SMTP/SES: I have any and I saw there are too many.
    The suggestion in your link to change something into the function;php it seems dangerous because I’m afraid that when WordPress updates itself, it will reset any modification up there.

    On top of this wp_email() supports extra headers and these headers are ok with the spam filters:

    Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

    MIME-Version: 1.0

    X-MSMail-Priority: High

    Importance: High

    X-Sensitivity: 1

    Sensitivity: Company-Confidential

    Here my update: the customer doesn’t want the egex solution for security reasons.
    Any SMTP/SES is not doing what I need in an easy and quick way.
    Unfortunately I think I have to uninstall this plugin.

    I’m sorry for that.

    Hi @tormy,
    I understand.

    The regex is a fairly tried and tested method for BNFW at this point and doens’t appear to have any security issues associated with it – it just rewrites specific URLs.
    As for an SMTP/SES plugin, I always recommend Post SMTP as it has a setup wizard and an email log.

    Hope this helps.

    i fact the owner doesn’t want ppl going to wp-login to be redirected to /door.

    he wants /door as exclusive access.

    But into the email associated with the users he creates, he does want t/door applied and not /wp-login.

    Note: I installed Post SMTP you suggested and at least that issue is solved. Thank you for that.
    Still the other issue to be solved asap.

    Hi @tormy,
    That’s good to hear you have the Post SMTP plugin working.

    The only other thing you could do is create a custom shortcode to use instead. I can’t give support for this as it’s custom code but this support document should get you started: https://betternotificationsforwp.com/documentation/adding-custom-shortcodes/

    Hope this helps.
