Description

Avis
Works, but be aware: NOT multisite compatible
This plugin works well for single sites. But it does not update the wp_sitemeta site_admins setting, so if any username you change is a superadmin, it will lose network admin access until that database entry is edited manually.
So simple and fast!
I can confirm this plugin works perfect! It is so easy to use. Just follow the screenshots. Many thanks!
Very nice work. I gave you a $1 and I am ashamed.
Excellent plug in. works like a charm. Just installed it and went in to the settings. The greyed our option of change username was now available. Too Good.
Man the balance $4 i will pay soon. Just a little tight right now. LOL
PS: ashamed
Why no directions
Highly reviewed plugin. Gave one star because no directions in details... have to search around for it. Add directions and I'll change review.
Just what I need!
Thank you! This plugin saved tons of work and time to modify the username. And it has features where you can send a heads up to others if you're about to change their username as well.
Simple and direct
it does what it has to do and more.
Thank you!
