# Multisite Settings – Workaround?

 * We’re attempting to use your plugin on a multisite install. It’s not network 
   activated, just activated on an individual site on the install.
 * Our overall goal is to have author slugs be a users nickname.
 * The issue were having is the settings on the settings page will not save. If 
   I go to the settings page and select the Automatically Update checkbox and select
   nickname and save the settings, the settings do not save, it reverts back to 
   username (default) in the select box.
 * I can perform a bulk save and update all the users on the multisite based on 
   whatever criteria I set and it works great, but if a user was to change his nickname,
   I would have to perform another bulk update for the new slug to take effect.
 * I know this plugin does not specifically suggest it supports multisite but looking
   for suggestions if anybody has insight?

 * There was a logic issue that I just fixed and published in 1.2.1. Update, and
   let me know if that gets you back up and running.
