Multisite installation: problem with mail server

    Hi,
    WP 4.7, latest BBpress. I have a multisite: swissinformatic.org, magazine.swissinformatics.org, [other stuff]swissinformatics.org. My mail server is @swissinformatics.org and the plugin picks up $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] to create the no reply address.
    COULD YOU HELP US with a setting box to supersede this value?
    Meanwhile I replaced it with my site name in the functions.php code, but mind the next plugin update!
    $sitename = strtolower( ‘swissinformatics.org );
    Always beware of “Educated guess’ I’m not going to buy a mail server for each subdomain and with the present security of providers,…
    I also created a no reply alias of my administrative e-mail address.
    Everything is fine now

    * We use $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] here to mimic similar functionality in

    $sitename = substr( $sitename, 4 );
    }
    return apply_filters( ‘bbp_get_do_not_reply_address’, ‘noreply@’ . $sitename );

    Do you know how to put code in your theme’s function file ?

    if so add this to it

    add_filter( ‘bbp_get_do_not_reply_address’, ‘noreply@swissinformatics.org' );

    and that will not get overwritten on upgrade of bbpress plugin

    Of course that will need a child theme, as otherwise it will get lost on a theme update !

    If any of that not clear (or not possible) come back !
