WordPress 5.2 pioneered a new “Recovery mode” feature that can notify site administrators by email if their site experiences a fatal error.
By default, the email is sent to either an email configured under the RECOVERY_MODE_EMAIL
constant or the user that created the website (admin_email
option).
If you want this email to multiple addresses, you can use the snippet below in your themes functions.php
or in a plugin. Configure the extra address on line 6.
add_filter('recovery_mode_email', function($email, $url) {
$email_array = [];
$email_array[] = $email['to'];
// Adds another email
$email_array[] = 'your-email@gmail.com';
$email['to'] = $email_array;
return $email;
}, 10, 2);
