It works great when it's one person logging in/out of two or more accounts.

However, if in fact it is two different people on one forum, with linked accounts for easy switching, and one of them logs out... the other person can still just switch right into their account. (Since the accounts are "linked" it does not ask for that password again, even if one of them logged out when their session was done.)

SO... be sure you're okay with this before using it for two separate people. A husband and wife may enjoy the easy switching back and forth, but the price for this, is the inability to "log out" for sure. (Either spouse could easily log in as the other and read PM's, etc.)

Psionic Vision, is there any way to modify this so that it respects the login/logout cookie for each account?

I just checked, it does logout you properly. Unfortunately, I am unable to recreate the problem on my computer...

My moderators really need this hack so this is why I'm trying to get it to work.

I've done everything I can think of but still nothing. I've looked at the images, but on my board NO link (drop down?) is next to my name in the upper right nav bar area.

The only thing I'm confused about in the instructions is the following:

"For each of the pairs below, copy the file on the left from the archive package you have downloaded to the path you can see on the right.
Example: If you need to copy ./admincp/thehack.php to ./somefolder/thehack.php, it would mean that you need to copy a file, called thehack.php from the admincp subfolder of the package you have downloaded to the somefolder subdirectory of your forum engine."

I write for a living and that sentence confuses the heck out of me.

Anyway, I could really use some help on this one.

Where do you go to see the screenshot1? I looked in the user profile area, couldn't find it.

I've gone to user profile fields area, users area and no luck.

I'm dumbfounded by this one.

thanks in advance for any help on this.

The screenshots are in the bottom of the first post.
They depict the admincp user manager interface, the bottom part in the user editor... Concerning the confusing statement, you simply have to upload the contents of /upload/ to your /forum/ folder.
