how can change your username in WordPress. So let me just log into this WordPress website

So this is just a test website. Now let me just go to the users and let me just click on the profile here and let me
0:18
just scroll down and as you can see, we don't have any option to change username in WordPress
0:24
So let's check how can change the username in your WordPress website very easily
0:30
So for this you need to install a plugin called easy username updater and the best thing is
0:36
you don't need to keep it active after the work is done
0:40
So let me just show you. So let me just click on the plugins here and let me just click on add new here
0:47
Now let me just search for easy username and here you will see this plugin easy username updater
0:57
So just install and activate this plugin. Once you have activate this plugin, you will see a new option like username updater under
1:05
the user section. So just click on username updater here and here you will see this option like username
1:12
email address. So just click on the update button here and let's change the username from here
1:19
So let me just change it to something like cadence one. Now you can also send a email to the administrative email address that you have set in the user
1:31
section or you can just simply click on user update username. Okay
1:37
Now the username is updated. Let's click on go back here and let's enter the new email address, new username here and
1:47
let's enter the password here. Now let's click on login again
2:07
And as you can see, the username is now updated and here you will see the new username and
2:12
you can now use the new username instead of old username. Now you can just simply delete the plugin
2:19
So let me just go to the install plugin here and let me just deactivate this plugin and
2:25
let me just delete this plugin. Now let me just click on the logout button again and let me just add the new username
2:33
here and let me just enter the password and let's click on login
2:42
And as you can see, we have successfully changed our username using a simple plugin and you
2:47
don't have to keep the plugin activated once the work is done
