Hello,
If someone can post working code I will pay full amount to them - Time is against me. Thanks
How can I add BCC to this email notification function?
Thank you.
add_filter ("retrieve_password_message", "my_awesome_retrieve_password_message", 10, 2 );
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
global $wpdb;
$user_login = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT user_login FROM $wpdb->users WHERE user_activation_key = '$key'");
ob_start();
$email_subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
include("email_header.php");
$user = get_user_by('login', $user_login);
?>
<p>hello</p>
<?php
include("email_footer.php");
$message = ob_get_contents();

Dbranes answers:
you might try something like (untested, but I added some debug stuff that you can comment out if you want):
add_filter( 'wp_mail','my_mail');
function my_mail($data){
// echo "</h2>Debug: Before change:</h2>";
//print_r($data);
$data['headers']="BCC: [email protected],[email protected] \n";
// echo "<h2>Debug: After change:</h2>";
// print_r($data);
//die("debug stop!");
return $data;
}
since <em>'wp_mail'</em> is a filter used by the <strong>wp_mail()</strong> function.
<strong>Edit:</strong>
To check out for <strong>action=lostpassword</strong> you can try:
add_filter( 'wp_mail','my_mail');
function my_mail($data){
if($_GET['action']=="lostpassword"){
$data['headers']="BCC: [email protected],[email protected] \r\n";
}
return $data;
}

In headers of wp_mail you can define it:
$headers[] = 'From: Me Myself <[email protected]>';
$headers[] = 'Cc: John Q Codex <[email protected]>';
$headers[] = 'Cc: [email protected]'; // note you can just use a simple email address
wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );
Francisco Javier Carazo Gil comments:
So instead this filter, you will have to modify an action which call the wp_mail. Directly you can send a differnt email in this hook:
This is the action: add_action( 'lostpassword_post', 'sendOtherMail' );
public function sendOtherMail()
{
// send me mail
}
Josh Cranwell comments:
What about the content and key variables?
Do I just write this... function sendOtherMail($content, $key)
Will the below work???
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
$subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
$headers = 'From: '.get_bloginfo('name').' <'.get_bloginfo('admin_email').'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: [email protected]" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
ob_start();
$email_subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
include("email_header.php");
?>

Francisco Javier Carazo Gil comments:
I think it should be enough.
Josh Cranwell comments:
As I suspected, the email works fine.
But the variables are not passed.
And because of the $content, $key variables are not passed, then the email is useless as they cannot activate there account.
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
$subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
$headers = 'From: '.get_bloginfo('name').' <'.get_bloginfo('admin_email').'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: [email protected]" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
ob_start();
$email_subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
include("email_header.php");

Yes, but ya can force to apply the filter with this function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/apply_filters and with this you will have the vars as you want.

I cant use headers in this...
add_filter ("retrieve_password_message", "my_awesome_retrieve_password_message", 10, 2 );
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
global $wpdb;
$user_login = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT user_login FROM $wpdb->users WHERE user_activation_key = '$key'");
ob_start();
$email_subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
include("email_header.php");
$user = get_user_by('login', $user_login);
?>
<p>hello</p>
<?php
include("email_footer.php");
$message = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $message;
}
Christianto answers:
If you just return $content or $key, is it work?
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
return $content;
}
Josh Cranwell comments:
Would I do this...
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
return $content;
return $key;
}
Christianto comments:
we can return one variable, $content or $key..
or combine both
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
return $content.' this is key:'.$key;
}
You said that the value of $content and $key aren't pass to the function,
I check wp-login.php source code where this filter run, it should be pass correctly especially $message..
Josh Cranwell comments:
Ok i've tried this and it does not work. I'm struggling. I have active existing members flooding in and reseting passwords.
I need to set up a test site. It's on a multi site so dont know wether that is causing issue. See my latest code below you sugested...
function my_awesome_retrieve_password_message($content, $key) {
return $content;
$subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
$headers = 'From: '.get_bloginfo('name').' <'.get_bloginfo('admin_email').'>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: [email protected]" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
ob_start();
$email_subject = my_awesome_retrieve_password_title();
include("email_header.php");
?>
