Default How do I change my Webmaster Email Name?
For example when I put noreply@website.com in my webmaster email address
A user register and get a mail from this email however the name of the sender is _
I tried to change the name from the email to something else but it still shows _ (noreply@website.com)

How can I change the _ name?

Go to "admin CP" and then click "Vb Options" and find "Site Name / URL / Contact Details" and go to "Webmaster's Email" change and save

Yes I am able to change the webmaster email no problem
the problem I encounter is for example if I put noreply@website.com

the email will send it from "_ (noreply@website.com)"

_ = the name
noreply@website.com = the email

How to change the name?

If you use a noreply@ email for this, when they use the "Contact Us" section at the bottom of the page, they will be unable to get in contact with anyone and their emails will go unanswered.

The name that is sent is the "Forum Name" that you set in the options.

For me what Jedric said is true- the "from" name is the name of my forums in vbulletin options.
