I can't stop the database way. I figured out everything else. Just this would need a file edit.

You have it in the install instructions about that, I hope. That would make it alot easier to remember down the line for us old guys who tend to forget things. ;)

No, I dont have the file edit. I never looked into it fully.

No, I meant about changing the setting in the Admin CP and why it needs to be done. File edits are a no-no these days. ;)

without the template hack the custom header of the forum being disturbed, i guess it okay since not going to use it all the time.

good job there .:)

Thanks man for hack, but into vbulletin 3.7.0 Beta 5 the link into profile page not showing.

In beta 4 works correctly. Thanks again :)

I see that too. Looks like the hook on the profile page is different. I had to hack mine to make it work. I'm sure the author will update the MOD to address this.

Ta abe, simple and straightforward upgrade :)

Not sure what you mean. The edit is the same. And it still shows by me.

Abe,

I think what he is saying is the code where you insert the link in 3.7B5 is different from what is in the instructions. The hook on the new profile page looks completely different.

Can't be. Edit is the same thing.

Very nice, thank you!

Only question I have is when I attempt to log back in as admin, it stills keep me as the user.

Not a big deal, but I had to remove permissions to login as user.

You have to log-out using the link on top of the forum.

Thank you, this is a good mod, works well.

*installed

I tried to uninstall this hack, but in the templates, these are still showing:

admin_log_in_as_user_header
admin_log_in_as_user_member_info_link_vb36
admin_log_in_as_user_member_info_link_vb37

How do I completely remove this hack?

Had you edited them?

..........

Using 3.6.8, and the ability to use this mod is not showing up in either of the places (Edit user in ACP, or on user profile)...
I did the template edit.

Did you give your self permissions?

Where would I do that?
It is not a Usergroup Option (from what I see).

Administrator rights. More info is in the instructions if you would have read it.

Thanks ;)

Ok. I removed the header edit from the last installed version so now I am getting only one message at the top of the forum BUT I can't log in to anyone's account. I t keeps saying I don't have permission and if I click the return to my original user link at the top of the forum, it takes me back to the Admin user name (mine that is) So why can't I log in? By the way..had this problem with the older version too, that's why I decided to upgrade.

Did you set your permissions?

Yes I did. I can see the "log in as user" in their profiles but when I click it, all I see is the header message and a message that I have to log in using a username and password.

Sorry, I would need ACP access and access to this hack to test it out.

Very cool. Thank you!

Great stuff. Works a treat :D

Its not work with VB 3.7 RC1

same here, it is not working With RC1

RE: not working on vb 3.7rc1

It works on my site, but screws up the formatting in the/members view. I disabled the product to verify the problem, and the formatting problem fixed itself.

I reenabled the hack, and the formatting issue reappeared.

It creates a really long column, which changes the formatting of the blocks in the member view.


Thansk for a really cool hack, it is one of my favorites :) I"m still using it even with the formatting issue, because it only effects people with admin rights.

Totally awesome plugin... saved me from fighting with users about permissions... big thumbs up.

Are you guys sure you have an up-to-date vb template with just this edit? It should work if you put it in the right place.

I can give you permissions to look at it if you want. just pm me if you want to take a look.

I hope I explained correctly, the formatting issue is only present when in admin mode (or someone who has been given permission to log in as another user) and from the members page, it streches out into a really long block.

I'm running the latest release vb3.7 RC1, updated all templates, even tried to uninstall/reinstall the product with no luck. When I disable the product, the formatting problem goes away.

Working like a champ on 3.7 RC1. I had to add the font color to the phrase itself as I think the link messes that up in the alert message template. Also, I had to add 2   in front of the template link code as it ran together with the edit user link. If you put the actual link on the template itself, it spaces out right. Any way do do that?

Sounds like you have a skin problem. Does it mess up on the default VB skin?

You can PM me.

nice :).. was looking for this!!

is there anyway to request user/password before login to user account?

Yse! I think this is very important. In 3.7.0 for most of moderation action should inter password .... but for such an important hack it would be very nice if do something like that .
