What It Does

This plugin allows you to change usernames of your WordPress users in an effective and safe way.

By default, WordPress itself does not allow usernames to be changed. The other plugins for changing usernames do not scale all that well for sites with a large number of users.

This plugin takes a different approach by simply enhancing the default edit user page and then processing the username change over AJAX, resulting in a much faster and user-friendly experience.

Other Notable Features

Here are a few other notable features of this free Change Username plugin.
