Still supporting? Issues with Author dynamic tags

Hi Brandon,

Firstly many thanks for the plugin. Really good work. I use it to change the WP “author name” in the URL to the “display name”. However this is where I have a problem. When the plugin is activated, my dynamic tags for the author no longer work. This is what the theme developer said:

The Username dynamic tag outputs the data stored in the “user_login” column in wp_usermeta, which corresponds to the username. If this tag still outputs the original username, it means the plugin does not modify the username directly, but simply uses other author data to generate the profile URL.

The recommended approach for this problem is to overwrite the “generate_username_from_email()” function (located in /app/utils/security-utils.php), and apply your custom logic there. This requires custom coding.

So the question is does your plugin modify the username directly? Help would be much appreciated ??
