The Lowdown

If your looking for a way to get some extra content or you might have a facebook group you want to share on your site this is a pretty decent plugin for that. Create a facebook app and it will import the content from a specific facebook public group and place it on your site. It will auto update every 30min or so and add some great fresh content or not.

WP JV Custom Email Settings
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-jv-custom-email-settings/
By default when you send any notification from your blog (including many of the Plugins as well) sender is “WordPress” and the sender e-mail address is wordpress@yourdomain.com. I wanted to have personalized sender name and e-mail address that is why I created this Plugin.

This plugin will enable you to replace the default wordpress@yourdomain.com to any e-mail address and replace the default e-mail from “WordPress” name to a custom name. This plugin is compatible with Contact Form 7 (v3.9.1).
