115
 
116

121
 
122
+ ## [1.0.4](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/1.0.4) - 2015-04-21
123
  * Improve upgrade routine for older installs
124
  * Improve output escaping
125
  * Various minor fixes and improvements
126
 
127

128
  I swear I tested this! :(
129
 
130
  * Fix custom roles slugs not saving
131
 
132
+ ## [1.0.2](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/1.0.2) - 2014-09-04
133

134

135

136

138

139
 
140
+ ## [1.0](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/1.0) - 2014-02-26
141
  * Added ability to do role-based author bases
142
  * Added ability to use role-based author templates
143
  * Moderate code refactoring
145
  * Add "nickname" as option for auto-update
146

147
 
148
+ ## [0.9.6](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.9.6) - 2013-12-18
149
  * Fixed loading of translation files. Looks in wp-content/plugins/edit-author-slug/languages. If you're running 3.7+ (and you are... aren't you?), it will fall back to wp-content/languages/plugins if a proper localization can't be found in the edit-author-slug folder.
150
 
151
+ ## [0.9.5](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.9.5) - 2013-04-29

160
  * Quickly caught a few things I missed, so this release was skipped. See 0.9.4 for changes
161
 
162
+ ## [0.9.2](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.9.2) - 2012-06-25
163
  * Fix issue where any profile information other than the Author Slug could not be updated
164
  * Minor code improvement
165
 
166

167
  * Add 'Settings' link to plugins list table

173

176
 
177
+ ## [0.8](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.8) - 2011-12-15
178
  * Drastically improved error handling and feedback for author slug editing.
179
  * Restore duplicate author slug check as old method could alter the slug without any sort of warning.
180
  * Further improve the logic for flushing rewrite rules.
181
  * Introduce ba_eas_can_edit_author_slug() and matching filter to make it even easier to give users the ability to update their own author slug.
182
  * Add message in plugins list warning users of WP less than 3.2 that 0.8 is the last update they'll receive.
183
 
184
+ ## [0.7.2](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.7.2) - 2011-02-13
185
  * Remove overzealous cap check.
186
 
187
+ ## [0.7.1](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.7.1) - 2011-02-13
188
  * Fix some unfortunate errors I missed before tagging 0.7.
189
 
190
+ ## [0.7](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.7) - 2011-02-13
191
  * Significant code refactoring.
192
  * Added custom capability to give site admins the ability to add author slug access to other roles.
193
  * Improvements/optimizations to code logic.
195
  * Removed filter added in 0.6 as it was messy. It's much easier to achieve the same result without the plugin.
196
  * Got rid of wp_die() statement on duplicate author slugs in favor of WP's built-in duplicate author slug method.
197
 
198
+ ## [0.6.1](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.6.1) - 2010-12-14
199
  * Added Dutch translation.
200
  * Don't hard code the languages folder path.
201
  * Improve class check/initialization.
202
 
203
+ ## [0.6](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.6) - 2010-11-03
204
  * Some code cleanup.
205
  * More security hardening.
206
  * Added filter to allow for the complete removal of the Author Base (http://brandonallen.org/2010/11/03/how-to-remove-the-author-base-with-edit-author-slug/).
207
  * Flush rewrite rules only when necessary instead of every page load.
208
 
209
+ ## [0.5](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.5) - 2010-06-22
210
  * Added 'Author Slug' column to Users > Authors & Users (Users > Users in 3.0) page.
211
  * Ended support for the WP 2.8 branch. Most likely still works, but I will not support it.
212
  * Various bug fixes.
213
 
214
+ ## [0.4](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.4) - 2010-05-18
215
  * Added ability to change the Author Base.
216
  * Updated documentation.
217
  * Added some extra security via WP esc_* functions.
218
  * Added Belorussian translation.
219
 
220
+ ## [0.3.1](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.3.1) - 2010-03-21
221
  * Added Hebrew Translation.
222
 
223
+ ## [0.3](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.3) - 2010-03-21
224
  * Now localization friendly.
225
 
226
+ ## [0.2.1](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.2.1) - 2010-02-15
227
  * Fixed a bug that prevented updating a user if the author slug did not change.
228
 
229
+ ## [0.2](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.2) - 2010-01-27
230
  * Added a check to avoid duplicate slugs.
231
  * Properly sanitize slug before comparison and database insertion.
232
  * Updated plugin URI.
233
 
234
+ ## [0.1.4](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.1.4) - 2010-01-18
235
  * Update tags to reflect WordPress 2.9.1 compatibility.
236
  * Update link to plugin homepage.
237

241
+ ## [0.1.2](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.1.2) - 2009-11-28
242
  * Fix version number issues.
243
 
244
+ ## [0.1.1](https://github.com/thebrandonallen/edit-author-slug/tree/0.1.1) - 2009-11-27
245
  * Remove extra debug functions left behind.
246

- == Description ==
14
-
15
- This plugin allows full control of your user permalinks, allowing you to change both the author base (the '/author/' portion of the author URLs), and the author slug (defaults to the username of the author). You can set the author base globally, or you can set it to be user-specific based on a user's role. You now have the power to craft the perfect URL structure for you Author pages.

- Edit Author Slug allows for *http://example.com/ninja/master-ninja/*.

- == Frequently Asked Questions ==
42
-
43
- = What is an author slug? =
44
-
45
- On standard WordPress installs, it's the final part of an author permalink.
46
- e.g. - https://example.com/author/author-slug/
47
-
48
- In relation to WordPress internals, the author slug is the same as the `user_nicename` field found in a `WP_User` object, or the users table in the database.
49
-
50
- = Will my changes persist if I deactivate or delete the Edit Author Slug plugin? =
51
-
52
- It depends.
53
-
54
- Changing a user's author slug is permanent, as this changes the user's `user_nicename` field in the database.
55
-
56
- If you've changed the author base, deactivating or deleting the plugin will revert your author base back to `author`.
57
-
58
- = Why can't I edit my Author Slug? =
59
-
60
- Make sure you are an admin, or have been assigned the `edit_users` capability.
61
-
62
- = Why isn't my new Author Slug working? =
63
-
64
- While I've made every attempt to prevent this, I may have missed a spot or two. First things first, go to Settings > Permalinks and click "Save Changes." You don't need to actually need to make any changes for this to work. Hopefully, this should kick your new Author Slug into gear.
65
-
66
- If this doesn't work, make sure you don't have any slug conflicts from other posts/pages/plugins/permalink setting/etc. If you're still experiencing the issue, feel free to post a support request in the forums.

- * Add compatibility for iThemes Force Unique Nickname WordPress Tweak
81
- * Add a hash string as an author slug option
82
