Beskrivning
With this plugin, administrators can change the default author base in the registered users profile url, and the author slug of each user.
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).
The plugin adds 2 fields for this purpose, one in permalinks settings, the other in a user profile.
- Default: example.com/author_base/author_nicename/
- Customized: example.com/jedi/obiwan/
How to edit the slugs
- Go to Settings > Permalinks to edit the author base: ”author” => ”jedi”
- Go to Users > ”Any user profile” to edit the user slug: ”agent-smith” => ”obiwan”

Vanliga frågor
- Why the fields don’t display?
-
You probably don’t have the edit_users capability (for user slug) and manage_options capability (for author base).
Eventually, check out my blog for more infos or tips (sorry guys, it’s in french, but feel free to leave a comment in english).
- Will I keep the customized links if I uninstall the plugin?
-
Not exactly. The author base won’t be customized anymore, but each user will keep his customized author slug.
To retrieve the initial author slugs, empty the field on each user edit page (only the customized ones of course).
