Stop Sending Emails To New Users

    I manually add new users when someone guest posts. Easier to manage and put in bio info.

    I’m clicking “Skip Confirmation Email” Add the user without sending them a confirmation email.

    But it still sends the new user an email with their password. I want this disabled. How?

    Thanks!

  • The checkbox is only bypassing the confirmation step of the signup.
    If you are using multisite you could filter wpmu_welcome_user_notification and force it to false to stop any welcome emails from going out.
    add_filter( 'wpmu_welcome_user_notification', '__return_false');

    If not using multisite you can uncheck ‘Send this password to the new user by email.’ and that could work for you. Otherwise you will need to redefine wp_new_user_notification() to modify the messages.

    Thank you! That’s exactly what I needed.
