Set reply-to address in wp_mail header

Question

I use wp_mail to send notifications out of my WordPress theme. How can i add a reply-to address to the follwing wp_mail script:

$recipient  = "[email protected]";
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8','From: MyWebsite <'[email protected]'>');
$message = 'Here is the sent message';
        
wp_mail( $recipient, 'Here comes the Subject', $message, $headers );     

   

Answer 1

You can set the reply-to address inside of the $headers array. It needs to have the email address inside of <> and I would suggest using a name to make sure everything works fine.

$headers[] = 'Reply-To: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>';

I added a subject for your email. So your code would look like:

$recipient  = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Your subject";
$message = "Here is the sent message";
$headers = array(
    'Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8',
    'From: MyWebsite <[email protected]>',
    'Reply-To: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>'
);

wp_mail( $recipient, $subject, $message, $headers );

Answer 2

Here is a complete example with headers and attachments.

$from_name = 'name';
$from = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'test';    
$body = 'Test';
$to = '[email protected]';
$bcc = '[email protected]';
$attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR.'/uploads/'.$path_to_file;
$headers[] = 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8';
$headers[] = 'From: '.$from_name.' <'.$from.'>';
$headers[] = 'Reply-To: '.$from_name.' <'.$from.'>';
//add BCC if want 
$headers[] = 'Bcc: '.$bcc;

$success = wp_mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers, $attachments);
