Change usernames of your WordPress users easily & effectively.
The Change Username plugin allows you to change the usernames of your WordPress users in an easy and effective way.
We found that existing plugins to change the username in WordPress did not scale at all for sites with many users.
This plugin does not come with its own settings page but instead simply hooks into the “edit user” form.
It then processes the form over AJAX, resulting in a much better experience.
Here’s what it looks like: demo.gif.
Requirements
change-username.zip
to your plugins directory, which usually is /wp-content/plugins/
.Change Username does not come with its own settings page. You can change the username of your users on the page where you would normally edit that user.
Not right now. Only administrators with the edit_users
capability can change usernames.
Please check if your server is running PHP version 5.3 or later. The plugin will not do anything if you’re on an older version of PHP.
Initial release.
