Vinvin Force Email
v1.1.0 · by vinvin27
Send every email of a test or staging site to one address, so no real customer is ever written to by mistake.
About this plugin
You copied a live site to a staging server, or you are building a shop on your laptop. Orders, password resets, form notifications and newsletters are about to be sent to real people. Vinvin Force Email redirects every message sent by WordPress to the one address you choose.
- One setting: an email address, in Settings > General.
- Every recipient is replaced, “To”, “Cc” and “Bcc” included. The Cc and Bcc headers are removed, because left in place they would still deliver the message to the real recipients.
- Nothing is lost: the original recipients are added at the start of the subject, for example
[[email protected]] | Your order. - Works with anything that uses
wp_mail(): WooCommerce, contact forms, SMTP plugins, password resets. - A reminder in the dashboard: while the plugin redirects email, a notice tells administrators where it goes, so nobody forgets it on a live site.
- Safe by default: with no address (or an invalid one), emails are sent normally.
This plugin is meant for testing and development. Do not leave it active on a live site.
