Settings page where you configure email recipients
Where are notifications sent?
By default, notifications are sent to the WordPress admin email (Settings → General). You can also add an additional email address in the plugin settings.
How do I configure the email recipients?
Go to Settings → Up2date Notifier. From there you can:
* Enable/disable notifications to the admin email
* Add an additional email address (e.g., your support team)
Can I disable notifications to the admin email?
Yes! In Settings → Up2date Notifier, simply uncheck “Send notifications to admin email” if you only want to use an additional email address.
Will this slow down my site?
No. The plugin only runs when an update is completed, not on every page load.
Does it work with automatic updates?
Yes! It works with both manual and automatic WordPress updates.
Will there be more languages?
Yes! Multi-language support (Danish, German, Norwegian, Swedish) is planned for the next release.
