### 󠀁[Works PERFECTLY!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-perfectly-1127/)󠁿

I dont know what people are crying about? It works excellent. I just installed and
activated the plugin, went to the menu and instead of my regular admin-nick I just
changed to a new nick and pressed update. Voila.. Done in 10 sec…

Did not work for me: “The new one cannot be stored due to non existing mysql_real_escape_string
function”. I see others with this error in the Support section, from as long as 
six months ago, with no response.

Thanks for the plugin. I really wanted it to work though. While logged in as super
admin, clicking “Settings” beside the plugin name in the Plugins menu, it gives 
me this: You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

It is one of those plugins that just works and then sits quietly until you need 
it again.
