This is awesome...time to spy on the members that are trying to make evil plans...

That's not my problem HOW you use this hack.

Anyways, besides this hack, there are many other ways to read someone else's PMs. 1) There is a hcak out there that reading someone's PM is the main function. 2) Use phpmysql and look at the PM table.

Also, PM stands for Private Message, but Private as to you only, not a post. But not totally private, admins can always see what is in them by looking in the database. All users should know that already.

possible to make this work for only "SUPER ADMINS"? please?

Are the "user" last online and new posts updated if we login as him?

thanks

Quote from the main post:
This hack allows a SUPER ADMIN (settings in your config file) to log in as any user.

I believe so but not 100% sure. Check for your self and let me know.

amazing, but doesnt work for me, i click log into this user and just keeps me logged in.

Great mod. The only thing that concerns me is the question brought up in post #24

I'd install this in a heartbeat, the only thing from stopping me would be a cookies issue...I don't want to log in as another user and mark any posts as read. If you could somehow prevent that, I might give you a big fat kiss :)

To prevent this, make sure you use the setting that doesn't mark posts read until you actually read them.

Any way I can check your site? I'm not sure why it wouldn't work.
