More Information More Information
- The filter modifies the “from name” used in an email sent using the wp_mail() function. When used together with the ‘wp_mail_from‘ filter, it creates a from address like “Name <first.last@example.com>”. The filter should return a string.
- If you apply your filter using an anonymous function, you cannot remove it using remove_filter().

Example migrated from Codex:
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'custom_wp_mail_from_name' ); function custom_wp_mail_from_name( $original_email_from ) { return 'WordPress Email System'; }It is not necessary to call another method if you can use anonymous functions (PHP 5.3.0+):
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', function( $name ) { return 'WordPress Email System'; } );
