Change the Author Base URL in Rank Math

Use the rank_math/author_base filter to change the URL base for author archives in Rank Math.

When the author base is set using this filter, the Author Base option configured by users under Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Authors will have no effect.

In the example below, the author base is changed to writers (i.e., /writers/username/ instead of /author/username/).

/**
 * Allow developers to change the author base.
 *
 * @param string $base The author base.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/author_base', function( $base ) {
	return 'writers';
});
