The best plugin ever to customize wordpress default messages! Thanks a lot! A little upgrade was to remove site name from subjetc, or set as an option.

Just wanted to say how much I like this plugin. I am using it on all my Wordpress sites and my client sites. I dont understand why this is not part of the core Wordpress as it is so easy to use and I can’t imagine running a Wordpress site without it. Keep up the great work.

I give 4 stars to thank for authors’ great jobs. However, it is not compatible since WordPress 4.3+! New registers cannot receive password email. Probably the main reason is that the function wp_new_user_notification() in wp_includes\pluggable.php is very different since in WP 4.3+ from that in WP 4.2.5.
