Change Admin Email
This plugin allows an administrator to change the "site admin email", without sending a confirmation email from the server.
By submitting this form you agree to our Terms & Conditions
This plugin allows an administrator to change the “site admin email”, without sending a confirmation email from the server. This can be useful for testing purposes, localhost setups, or any other situation where outbound email is disabled on the site. A new “feature” of WordPress 4.9 is that the administrator cannot change the site admin email without outgoing email setup on the server. This plugin restores the administrator’s ability to change this setting without sending a confirmation email. Note that the “site admin email” is the global email used for admin purposes on the site. It is the “from” address when the site sends an email. The “site admin email” may be different from the administrator’s personal user email, which is associated with the administrator’s user account.

Simple and effective
By 
This plugin resolves a problem that many people must encounter: I am using Local by Flywheel to develop a WP site locally on my PC. So admin emails don't go anywhere. And I got stuck on the problem of changing the email address and not being able to verify the confirmation email. It turns out that Flywheel do have a mechanism, MailHog, to solve this, but the Change Admin Email plugin did the job effectively and fast.

Thank you for this awesome plugin - How many times I've been able to use this to make sure the real admin of the site gets all the notifications. THANK YOU 👍
Worked perfectly and easily

I've used Wordpress for years and I've never had trouble changing the administrative email address until now. I kept saving the new email address but the verification email never came and believe me, I looked everywhere repeatedly. Finally, I found out about this plugin on a troubleshooting forum. It worked easily.
Saved much potential frustration

To put it simply, the plugin works well. I found it in a WP blog and I'm very satisfied. Thanks.

Solved my problem!!

I wasn't able to change my site's admin email because wordpress wouldn't deliver to my new email's gmail inbox, even after installing the WP Mail SMTP plugin. But this plugin solved my problem completely by letting me bypass the email confirmation. Wish I'd known about this sooner. Thank you!!!!
Wow! Thank you!
