This plugin works great for me. I’m able to update the username, yet the user’s account still functions as before with their subscription and settings remaining active/unchanged. Thank you!

works just fine! somehow, one of the editors managed to change the main username of the website (so we ended up with 2 identical usernames for 2 email accounts!!), didn’t wanna touch the DB so this plugin saved me 🙂

Congrats on your fantastic plugin!
It would be great to have an option to change the slug along with the username. Also, a hint about purging object cache (e.g., for LiteSpeed users) would be helpful.
Thanks!

If you’ve ever had to do this manually then you’ll love this plugin especially if you are updating multiple usernames for security reasons.

This plugin is simple to use. Changing username is sometimes dangerous in itself and can break relations of the user with other plugins but if you know what you are doing, there is no issue with this one. Don’t use on multisite.
