Will this help my SEO?

Yes. Custom author URLs help search engines understand your site structure better. Just set up 301 redirects if you’re changing URLs on a live site.

Do I need to code anything?

No coding needed. Just point and click in your WordPress dashboard.

Does it work with my theme?

Yes. The plugin works with any WordPress theme that follows standard coding practices.

What if I turn off the plugin?

Your URLs go back to the WordPress default (author/username). Your content stays safe.

The plugin does its job well. Simple settings in permalinks. It allowed me to change the „author“ slug to the „team.“ The website structure looks much cleaner. Thank you!
