Can I Change WordPress Admin Username?

Changing the username for your WordPress admin account is a straightforward process. If you’re logged in to your WordPress site as Administrator, click the “Users” link in the left-hand menu. In the “Users” list, click the name of the admin account you want to change. On the “User Profile” page, click the “Settings” link in the header.

Under ” Username “, type the new username. Click the “Update Profile” button.

If you’re not logged in as Administrator, you can change the username for an existing WordPress admin account by clicking the “Admin” link in the left-hand menu, and then clicking the “Users” link in the header.

WordPress will automatically update the username in the “User Profile” page. If the new username is not valid, WordPress will display a warning message and allow you to continue.
