Edit Usernames

We have been using this plugin internally to perform a simple function that should be built into WordPress by default. Good stuff!

Simple, solid plugin

The Edit Usernames plugin allows WordPress admins and WooCommerce managers to edit the users' usernames through the admin dashboard. Simple!

wpyb

<p>To prevent that usernames are publically visible, the username in the author’s permalink is replaced with the author’s ID.<br />
In case the page is invoked with the default permalink structure, it is displayed “Page not found”.</p>
<p>Additionally it is possible to modify the author base. It is recommended to make use of this plugin to change it, but it also works with other plugins that have the functionality to customize the author base.</p>


Change Author Link Structure

To prevent that usernames are publically visible, the username in the author's permalink is replaced with the author's ID.
