# 🔗 StreamWave Profile Vanity URLs Pro
**Give Every Member a Personalized Profile Address!**

Make your community more professional, memorable, and member-friendly with **StreamWave Profile Vanity URLs Pro**, a powerful profile customization add-on for StreamWave Community Suite.

Instead of sharing long profile links containing numeric member IDs, members can create their own personalized profile addresses using a unique name or nickname.

Whether they're content creators, DJs, gamers, community leaders, or everyday members, everyone can enjoy a cleaner, more recognizable online identity!

## 🌟 Personalized Profile URLs

Let members transform ordinary profile addresses into memorable links that are easy to share.

**Standard Profile URL:**

`https://yourcommunity.com/forum-profile.php?member=123`

**Custom Vanity URL:**

`https://yourcommunity.com/members/dj-nova/`

**Alternative Short URL:**

`https://yourcommunity.com/u/dj-nova/`

Both vanity URL formats lead to the member's existing community profile, preserving their profile information, activity, and community features.

## 🚀 Powerful Features

### 🔗 Custom Vanity Profile Addresses
Members can choose their own unique profile URL using letters, numbers, and hyphens. Every address is checked for availability to prevent duplicate ownership.

### 👤 Integrated Member Profile Management
A dedicated **Profile Vanity URL** management option allows members to claim and manage their personalized addresses directly from the community.

### 📋 One-Click Profile Link Sharing
A convenient **Copy Profile Link** button makes it easy to share personalized profiles on social media, websites, messages, and other communities.

### 🔄 Automatic Old URL Redirects
When a member changes their vanity URL, previously claimed addresses remain reserved and redirect visitors to the member's current profile address.

This helps preserve previously shared links.

### 🛡️ Reserved Name Protection
Important system names and administrative terms are protected from registration, helping prevent impersonation and misleading profile addresses.

### ⏳ URL Change Cooldowns
To discourage abuse and constant username changes, members are subject to a configurable-in-code change policy:

- One vanity URL change every 30 days.
- A maximum of five changes per member.
- Administrators can override member change restrictions.

### 👑 Administrator Management
Administrators can manage member vanity addresses using familiar member usernames rather than numeric IDs.

### 📜 URL Change History
The system records vanity URL changes, including previous addresses and timestamps, providing an audit trail for administration.

### 🎨 Fully Theme Responsive
Designed to work with StreamWave Community Suite's active theme styling, including dark themes, light themes, and mobile layouts.

### ⚡ SQLite Integration
Uses lightweight SQLite database tables and integrates with the existing Community Suite member system.

No separate member database is required.
