Change the Default Email for Weekly Email Summaries

Would you like to change the default email address for the weekly summary report that is sent out from WPForms? By default, these weekly emails are sent to your WordPress site’s administrator email account listed in your WordPress admin panel go to the Settings » General tab. With a small PHP snippet that we’ll show you in this tutorial, you can easily change this email address to any email you’d like.

Changing the default email
