Works great! Thx!

Installed, very handy to test advanced permissions :)

Hello,
I too was having the same problem as the members are discussing. If you are certain that you entered your license and not your customer number, then upload the file accordingly.

Once it is uploaded, you NEED TO CLEAR your cookies and temp files. This is done differently on each OS, so I can't leave instructions on how to do this.

Once you have cleared your cookies and temp files, re-login to your site. The function will now work.

If the function still does not work, you have either entered an incorrect license number or you did not enter the coding correctly.

This is a very easy install, and I too was having problems with it not functioning. Once I cleared my cookies and temp files, all systems were a go and it has worked ever since.

Well mystery solved. It seems the problem was our host. For some reason, whatever the configuration, this particular thing did not work. I'll never know what it was, as he would always tell me it was my problem. Now on a new host and it's back working like a charm.

I just tried this hack, in an effort to solve a problem I have, when testing something. I am sure all the admins here have faced that. Unfortunatelly, it doesn't, that's why I haven't click "Install" yet.

Say you have a browser window open with AdminCP and you are doing some changes, which affect only registered users. So, you either use this hack to Login as User, or open another browser window, to login with a test user name and password.

You try the new feature, and when you logout (as a user), you go back to the AdminCP, to do some further changes. In that particular moment, you have to re-login as the admin. Why is the normal forum and the Admin CP using the same cookie? Is there a way to change that, so the Admin CP and the normal forum use different cookies? This hack would be very useful, if it would allow you to do this.

Thanks and regards

Try this hack by nexialys. It creates a seperate cookie for Admins so you should not have this problem.

yes, my new release is answering this need... so you don't need this "Login as User" hack anymore.. and it's a 3 lines addition, no code mess.

CLICKS INSTALL! After searching a bit, I found the option. Thanks!

Nexialys hack is a dream which came true for me. This is what I was hoping the "Login as User" hack to be. I wouldn't uninstall Login as User, but its usefulness, at least for me, is limited.

Thanks Nexialys (again).

But...you still need to log in as a registered user.

What's the difference between installing your hack and using a different browser to do it?

Your hack doesn't allow an admin to log in as a non-admin, so you can't really say "you don't need this "Login as User" hack anymore".
