How to mail new posts wordpress

In WordPress, there are a few ways to send notifications or emails when a new post is published. Here are a few methods:

Method 1: Using the built-in WordPress feature

Go to Settings > Writing in your WordPress dashboard.
Scroll down to the Email Options section.
Check the box next to Send a notification email to the author.
Enter the email address(es) you want to receive notifications at.
Click Save Changes.

This will send an email to the author of the post when it's published, with a summary of the post and a link to view it.

Method 2: Using a plugin

There are many plugins available that can help you send notifications or emails when a new post is published. Here are a few popular ones:

WP Notification Email: This plugin allows you to send custom email notifications to authors, editors, or administrators when a new post is published.
Post Notification: This plugin sends email notifications to authors, editors, or administrators when a new post is published, and also allows you to customize the notification content.
Notify Me: This plugin sends email notifications to authors, editors, or administrators when a new post is published, and also allows you to customize the notification content and recipients.

To use a plugin, follow these steps:

Install and activate the plugin in your WordPress dashboard.
Configure the plugin settings to your liking.
Save your changes.

Method 3: Using a custom function

If you're comfortable with coding, you can also use a custom function to send notifications when a new post is published. Here's an example:

function send_new_post_notification($post_id) {
    $post = get_post($post_id);
    $author_email = get_the_author_meta('email', $post->post_author);
    $subject = 'New Post: '. $post->post_title;
    $message = 'Hello, '. $post->post_author. '. Your new post "'. $post->post_title. '" has been published.';
    wp_mail($author_email, $subject, $message);
}
add_action('publish_post', 'send_new_post_notification');

This code uses the publish_post action hook to trigger the send_new_post_notification function when a new post is published. The function gets the post author's email address, constructs a subject and message, and sends an email using the wp_mail function.
