Have you received an email from WordPress about a comment notification? We get asked this question a lot from new users. How do we turn off comment notifications in WordPress? WordPress has a built-in feature that notifies the administrator if a comment is posted or held in moderation. This feature is enabled by default on all installations. In this article, we will show you how to turn off comment notifications in WordPress.
Login to your WordPress dashboard. In the menus, go to: Settings » Discussion. Then look at where it says “Email me whenever” and un-check the boxes there.
This will turn off new comment notifications that you get. This is one of the most frequently asked WordPress questions that we get.
Bonus Tip:
We also get asked about New comment notification from other sites. That happens because the site you commented on is using a plugin like “Subscribe to Comments“. You probably checked or forgot to uncheck the box. Most of those emails have an unsubscribe link. You should be able to unsubscribe fairly easily.
Is there a way to turn off comment notification on a post-by-post basis? Some posts I’d like to receive notification for, while others I’d rather not, but it seems to be an all-or-nothing situation.
None that we are aware of. You can always use subscribe to comments plugin to get notified if there is a new comment. Alternatively, you can just check your dashboard every few hours.
You know, out of the blue, we’re getting repeat notifications over and over again for one particular post on our site. I’ve tried disabling (per your instructions above) and re-enabling, but we’re still getting hundreds of repeat notification emails. Have you ever seen this or do you have any idea of how one might fix that? Thanks in advance.
Nope, the technique above should solve the issue. Not sure what’s going on with your site.
How do you turn off user registration notifications.
There is a WP plugin, but it hasn’t been updated since 2010.

The best way would be to filter it out in your email and delete them automatically (Gmail has filters).
