This modification gives users the ability to easily switch between linked accounts. Accounts can be linked by administrators via admincp or by users via usercp as long as these users know the passwords for both accounts. Optionally, you can disallow users to link and unlink accounts from the usercp.

This is so cool, Thanks :)

Pretty cool indeed.

Does anyone have the ability to link names, or is it reserved so that only admins can link peoples names?

Awesome. I can already see how helpful this will be. THANK YOU.

Only administrator with 'canadministerusers' permission can link/unlink accounts from admincp.

Nice hack, once i change from admin account to another it then only gives me the option to go back to admin account even though i have linked 4 accounts.
Is this how it should work or should i be able to go from one account to any other account.

Of course.. Each link only links two accounts, chains are not supported.

Thanks, still a great mod, saves logging in and out. :banana:

Vert Great port
i'll use it in the test forum ;)
