SF Author Url Control

SF Author Url Control

Details
View on WordPress

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”
