Change the author slug in the permalink for author pages.

== Description ==

This plugin lets you create custom permalinks for author pages. By default URLs to author pages are structured:

http://www.example.com/author/author-name/ 

With this plugin you can change the "author" part of these URLs into anything you like, for example:

http://www.example.com/editorial/author-name/ 
http://www.example.com/crew/author-name/ 
http://www.example.com/members/author-name/
http://www.example.com/posts-by/author-name/

etc.

== Installation ==

1. Download the plugin and unzip,
1. Upload the author-slug folder to your wp-content/plugins folder,
1. Activate the plugin through the Wordpress admin,

Optionally, you can use the [the_author_posts_link()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_author_posts_link) template tag in your template files to create a link to the authors post page.
