This was great in vb 2 and am finally installing in vb3. Nice work. Is it possible in a new version to add the feature to not update last posts read and not log IP Addresses?

It was actually. This comes from V2

nice hack - well done

installed and working on 3.0.7
Nice Hack !!!

Great mod! /me hits install.

For the hack author and whomever needs this, I have ported it to work with 3.5.

I didn't want to lift his work and release it under my name; so, here's the port.

The hack author may release it in the 3.5 forums as he sees fit.

Amy

thank you amy!!! :D

Thanks I didnt see the need in this till today, but it came in handy to see something first hand like. Thanks for the great, easy, hack!

Great work! Thanks a lot.

I installed this, but how do I login as another user? Theres no option via admin cpanel

It's in the drop down menu for the user.

Thanks you!

Great stuff

Many thanks

Great Mod.

Does anyone know of a way to password protect a specific file on a server? Kind of like a .htaccess alternative, but protects files instead of/and dirs.

Every time i try to log in as a different user , it still logs me in as my admin login name - nothing seems to change - ive copied everyting as stated , im wondering is this a cookie problem ?

I installed for 3.5 but for some reason when I try to login as a user it tells me I don't have the appropriate administrator privileges. I went into config.php and made sure my userid is listed as a superadministrator. I also click the link for administrator settings and made sure everything was set to yes. Is there another setting somewhere that I've forgotten?

Not that I know of. The code I posted is what is working for me.

That's what I'm getting when I try to login. I looked at the code to insert and noticed this line:

I'm guessing that's causing the problem.

ETA: Yes, that was the problem. It's working for me now that I've removed it.

Doh. That would explain it :D

Fabulous, thank you. :)

hmm, amykar i kinda need help :(. When i click on "Log In As User", i am on the homepage and im not logged into anyones account :(. Help ? :-(


Edit: It works perfecrtly fine :P

Thanks Amy works perfect. (could you give me access to your script forums, I signed up with the same screen name yesterday)

When people apply this hack, update your license number in this hack, it will not work when you forget this!!

Well i am getting this same problem on GOLD. Iv i remove that line i get an error, any ideas?

SWEET MOD!!!!!

Thanks so much, I't helped me resolve a issue that I had with a perticular user......

Any help on this guys?

Snowbot, I figure somebody with over 400 posts here could figure this one out. Do you not see the comment on the line of code that you removed? What does it say it is? What do you think MIGHT be needed there? Why do you think removing that line might have made things not work?

Well thanks for the informative reply, now it didnt work when i had that line in and set to 1,5 as in my superadmins so reading the posts above i did what was done before. So with the line in it didnt work either so why i posted.........

When setting this to "1" i still get

Even though i am SAdmin and all admin perms set to yes.

installed and working
good one.

Sorted it, lol my stupid mistake. I missed a number off the Licence Number LOL

Amy, for the 3.5 version, you can use COOKIE_SALT for the vbulletin license number, so that people installing it won't have to hardcode their own license number.

Can I use this hack for a 3.5.2 board?

Thx.

Yes, use the one Amy posted: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...3.5#post737648

Thanks!

thanks a lot to everyone that contributed for this hack.

I just saw this. I'll look into it when I get a chance.

Guys,

I have installed this hack but honestly I cannot tell if it is working or not.

Where should I be going to look to see if things work or not?

What should I be seeing?

Thanks

Doug

Group,

How do I login as a user? I just dont see it anywhere at all.

Am I suppose to login as the user in the admin cp or on the board itself?

Doug

As far as I can see, this adds the option to the drop down choices at the top of the display/edit user screen (in the acp).
