I am using wp_mail function to send email to author from single.php page.

Here is the variable i am using but it is getting admin email. 

$emailTo = get_option('admin_email');

Instead of admin email I want author email who posted the post. I need help please. Many thanks.

Update

Here is my code i am trying to do

if(!isset($hasError)) { //$emailTo = “w_chand@live.com”; if
(!isset($emailTo) || ($emailTo == ”) ){ $emailTo =
the_author_meta(‘user_email’); } $subject = ’email subject goes
here’.$name; $body = ” Name: $Name nnDuration: $duration nnComments:

  1. You can get by get_the_author_meta() wordpress function to get author email address.

    <?php 
      $user_email = get_the_author_meta('user_email');
?>

    Get the email address for user ID 25, and echo it using their display name as the anchor text.

    <p>Email the author: 
     <a href="mailto: 
          <?php echo get_the_author_meta('user_email', 25); ?>"
     >
          <?php the_author_meta('display_name', 25); ?>
     </a>
</p>

    Following function is deprecated,

     <?php the_author_email(); ?>

    Mailto Link

    Displays author email address as a “mailto” link.

    <a href="mailto:<?php the_author_email(); ?>">Contact the author</a>

    Demo Code

    <div id="about-author-wrap">
     <div class="about-author-avatar">
        <?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), '90' ); ?>
     </div>
     <div class="about-author-info">                                
        <h5>About the Post Writer <small>View all posts by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></small></h5>
    </div>
    <div class="about-author-description">
        <?php the_author_meta("description"); ?>
    </div>
</div>

    Hope this help you!
