ideas for faster & simpler websites

If you need to quickly create an admin account for a WordPress site, upload adminer.php to the root directory or log in to phpMyAdmin, and run this SQL command (SQL tab in phpMyAdmin): INSERT INTO `DATABASE_NAME`.`wp_users` (`ID`, `user_login`, `user_pass`, `user_nicename`, `user_email`, `user_url`, `user_registered`, `user_activation_key`, `user_status`, `display_name`) VALUES (‘99999’, ‘username’, MD5(‘MakeABetterPassword’), ‘username’, ’email@gmail.com’, ”, NOW(), ”, […]

add_filter(‘wp_mail_from’, function($email){ return str_replace(‘wordpress@’, ‘webmaster@’, $email ); }); add_filter(‘wp_mail_from_name’, function($name){ return $name === ‘WordPress’ ? get_bloginfo(‘name’) : $name; }); Here’s a version that uses the admin email set in in wordpress settings. This isn’t a great idea if the admin email isn’t a domain you own and can add the sending IP to the domain’s […]
