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: http://www.my-site.com/author_base/author_nicename/
• Customized: http://www.my-site.com/jedi/obiwan/

How to edit the slugs

• Go to Settings > Permalinks to edit the author base: "author_base" => "jedi"
• Go to Users > "Any user edit page" to edit the user slug: "author_nicename" => "obiwan"
