Hi

Changing username completely on only need to change users slug?

1- for username you need “Username Changer” plugin. (It’s good but this way (changing username only) is not a safe way)

Username Changer is a simple plugin which allows administrators to change usernames of users on their sites. Additionally, if the user display name matches the username, it is updated as well.

2- for username slugs (this is a safe way), In my opinion, the best way to this issue is testing “Edit Author Slug” plugin. I used it in one of my sites and it is very useful. You will be able to change all of users slugs BUT if AnsPress and it are compatible (I think they are compatible because “Edit Author Slug” and BuddyPress are compatible ). please check it and give Feedback.

GOODLUCK
