Want to change the email from name from “WordPress” for system generated emails? Add this bit to your functions.php file:
add_filter(‘wp_mail_from_name’, ‘tbs_wp_mail_from_name’);
function tbs_wp_mail_from_name($name) {
return ‘Your From Name Here’;
}
If you are not working with your own custom theme, be sure to add this code instead to a child theme. More on child themes coming. In the meantime, your can educate yourself here.
