- ## 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.
16
-
17
- WordPress default structure *http://example.com/author/username/*.
18
-
19
- Edit Author Slug allows for *http://example.com/ninja/master-ninja/*.
20
-
21
- Using a role-based author base would allow for *http://example.com/ida/master-splinter/* (for an Administrator Role), or *http://example.com/koga/leonardo/* (for a Subscriber Role).

- ## 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.

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.

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? =

-
60

- 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.
