Allow Multiple Accounts

Allow multiple user accounts to be created, registered, and updated having the same email address. By default, WordPress only allows a specific email address to be used for a single user account. This plugin removes that restriction. The plugin’s settings page (accessed via Users -> Multiple Accounts or via the Settings link next to the plugin on the Manage Plugins page) provides the ability to allow only certain email addresses the ability to have multiple accounts (such as if you only want admins to have that ability; by default all email addresses can be used more than once). You may also specify a limit to the number of accounts an email address can have (by default there is no limit). The settings page also provides a table listing all user accounts that share email addresses (see screenshot). Compatible with Multisite and BuddyPress as well. Links: Plugin Homepage | Plugin Directory Page | Author Homepage Template Tags The plugin provides three optional template tags for use in your theme templates. Functions Returns a count of the number of users associated with the given email. Returns the users associated with the given email. Returns a boolean indicating if the given email is associated with more than one user account. Arguments $email (string) An email address. Filters The plugin exposes three filters for hooking. Typically, customizations utilizing these hooks would be put into your active theme’s functions.php file, or used by another plugin. c2c_count_multiple_accounts (filter) The ‘c2c_count_multiple_accounts’ hook allows you to use an alternative approach to safely invoke c2c_count_multiple_accounts() in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the function won’t cause errors in your site. Arguments: same as for c2c_count_multiple_accounts() Example: Instead of: Do: c2c_get_users_by_email (filter) The ‘c2c_get_users_by_email’ hook allows you to use an alternative approach to safely invoke c2c_get_users_by_email() in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the function won’t cause errors in your site. Arguments: same as for c2c_get_users_by_email() Example: Instead of: Do: c2c_has_multiple_accounts (filter) The ‘c2c_has_multiple_accounts’ hook allows you to use an alternative approach to safely invoke c2c_has_multiple_accounts() in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the function won’t cause errors in your site.

WP Mail Logging

WP Mail Logging is the most popular plugin for logging emails sent from your WordPress site. Simply activate it and it will work immediately, no extra configuration is needed. Are your WordPress emails not being sent or delivered? Use this plugin to log all outgoing emails from your WordPress site. If there are any errors when sending the email from your site, our email logs will catch that error and display it to you. This will allow you to debug and fix your email sending issue. Did a client not receive your email? Our email logs allow you to resend any email that was sent from your site. No more lost emails! Do you just want to keep a record of all emails sent from your site? By default, WordPress and your web host do not log, store or keep track of emails sent from your website. This plugin will allow you to do just that. Our email logs will store every email that is sent from your WordPress site. You can search and view a particular email log, inspect its content or attachments, and even resend that email. What email information is logged? All emails sent from your WordPress site are logged. And here is the information that is stored: Email Subject Email Content (HTML or text) Email Attachments Email Headers (to, from, reply-to, cc, bcc, …) Error Message (in case there was an error while attempting to send the email) IP Address of originating server (can be enabled in the settings) Date and Time of the email Receiver (the TO email address) Why are my logged emails still not delivered to the inbox? There are a lot of steps that emails have to make in order to be delivered to the recipient’s inbox. When your WordPress site sends an email, there’s no guarantee it will be delivered. This is what the email’s journey looks like: WordPress creates an email WordPress passes the email to your website host and that email gets logged by our plugin The host server takes the email and sends it (SMTP or Mail Transfer Agent) Recipient server receives or blocks the email If the email is accepted, the spam filter decides if it goes to the inbox or the spam folder Recipients see the email and might open it. This plugin does not track delivery after step 2. If you have deliverability issues, we suggest installing the WP Mail SMTP plugin. WP Mail SMTP fixes WordPress email deliverability problems, you can choose between 12 email providers (Gmail, Outlook, SendLayer, Mailgun, …) to resolve your email sending issue and it’s super easy to set up. WP Mail SMTP is trusted by more than 3 million websites. Credits The plugin was created and launched in 2014 by Christian Zöller.
