Alexis Media I am using the below code to make changes to the author links and such. 
add_filter( 'request', 'wpse5742_request' );
function wpse5742_request( $query_vars )
{
    if ( array_key_exists( 'author_name', $query_vars ) ) {
        global $wpdb;
        $author_id = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->usermeta} WHERE meta_key='nickname' AND meta_value = %s", $query_vars['author_name'] ) );
        if ( $author_id ) {
            $query_vars['author'] = $author_id;
            unset( $query_vars['author_name'] );    
        }
    }
    return $query_vars;
}
add_filter( 'author_link', 'wpse5742_author_link', 10, 3 );
function wpse5742_author_link( $link, $author_id, $author_nicename )
{
    $author_nickname = get_user_meta( $author_id, 'nickname', true );
    if ( $author_nickname ) {
        $link = str_replace( $author_nicename, sanitize_title($author_nickname), $link );
    }
    return $link;
}
add_action( 'user_profile_update_errors', 'wpse5742_set_user_nicename_to_nickname', 10, 3 );
function wpse5742_set_user_nicename_to_nickname( &$errors, $update, &$user )
{
    if ( ! empty( $user->nickname ) ) {
        $user->user_nicename = sanitize_title( $user->nickname, $user->display_name );
    }
}
The issue is this only seems to be triggered from update a profile from wp-admin. I need it to trigger after submitting from the plugin.

Take a look at the action hook list, there is one action that triggers when profile updates.

tried replacing “user_profile_update_errors” and “request” with “wpuf_update_profile” and it just locks the page up on saving it. Any other ideas you may have please?

Issue i am having is after a user update thier profile the url wont work till after i go to WP-Admin and save the profile from there. I dont have to make any changes just visit the users profile and click save from the backend. Then the url starts working. Id like this to work from the user editing the profile. What could be going on to trigger this in the backend thats not going on on the front?

You can’t expect to paste a code that works for something and that will work in everywhere and with every plugin. The context is different and they works differently.

May be this will work-
[php]
function wpufe_update_nicename( $user_id ) {
$user = get_user_by( ‘id’, $user_id );

if ( !empty( $user->nickname ) ) {
$nice_name = sanitize_title( $user->nickname, $user->display_name );
wp_update_user( array(‘ID’ => $user_id, ‘user_nicename’ => $nice_name) );
}
}

add_action( ‘wpuf_update_profile’, ‘wpufe_update_nicename’ );
[/php]
