<p>With this plugin, administrators can change the default author base in the registered users profile url, and the author slug of each user.<br />
Changing an author slug is a good thing for security (if your login is “This Is Me”, your slug will be “this-is-me”, a bit easy to guess).<br />
The plugin adds 2 fields for this purpose, one in permalinks settings, the other in a user profile.</p>
<ul>
<li>Default: <em>example.com/author_base/author_nicename/</em></li>
<li>Customized: <em>example.com/jedi/obiwan/</em></li>
</ul>
<h4>How to edit the slugs</h4>
<ul>
<li>Go to <em>Settings</em> > <em>Permalinks</em> to edit the author base: “author” => “jedi”</li>
<li>Go to <em>Users</em> > <em>“Any user profile”</em> to edit the user slug: “agent-smith” => “obiwan”</li>
</ul>

<p>Slug Automator automatically generates slugs from WordPress post titles using the <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/03/24/introducing-the-ai-client-in-wordpress-7-0/" rel="nofollow ugc">AI Client</a> introduced in WordPress 7.0.</p>
<p>Writing post titles in Japanese or any other non-English language? Slug Automator uses AI to translate them into clean, English URL-friendly slugs — no manual input required. Automatic generation runs on publish only when the slug field is empty, so any slug you set yourself is never overwritten. You can also generate or regenerate a slug on demand with the “Generate Slug” button in the block editor.</p>
<p>Because it relies on the WordPress AI Client, it works with any AI provider configured on your site (Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and more).</p>
