In WordPress, an author's profile is by default accessible by using the yoursite.com/author/name. But it's really easy to change the default author url slug/base. All be just need is a simple snippet.
Kevin Chard found a great code to change the default yoursite.com/author/name to yoursite.com/profile/name. Just add following snippet to your functions.php file:
add_action('init', 'cng_author_base');
function cng_author_base() {
global $wp_rewrite;
$author_slug = 'profile'; // change slug name
$wp_rewrite->author_base = $author_slug;
}
Replace profile on line 4 by any slug you want.
