Admin Log In As User · **Released**: 01-26-2008

Admin Log In As User 3.10

About this hack:
This hack allows any admin that you set in admin permissions, to log in as any user. You have to go to the user's profile page and there will be a link to 'Log In As This User'. Also, there is a link the drop down menu in the ACP User Manager. If you are logged in as another user, you will get a message on top of the forum saying, 'You are currently logged in as another user. Click here to log back into your account.'

This hack is very easy to install. This hack has only the admin yes/no option. Just install and it's ready to be used!

Enjoy!

I'm in the MEMBER INFO template, and there is nothing like that there.

In MEMBERINFO

FIND:

Code:

<if condition="can_moderate()">
    <li class="thead"><a href="moderator.php?$session[sessionurl]do=useroptions&amp;u=$userinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[edit_user_profile]</a></li>
</if>

AFTER ADD:

Code:

<!-- Start Admin Log In As User -->
$admin_log_in_as_user_link
<!-- End Admin Log In As User -->

I'm also having the problem where when I login as a different user, I click the link to log out of that user, but the bar still shows me as logged in as that user. The only way I could disable it was to turn it off in admincp. BTw, I'm running vb 3.7.3.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Crap, from a different computer it works fine. Any ideas as to why?

Thanks!

OK, on my Vista laptop, it works perfect with IE7. On one of my XP desktops with IE7, it won't allow the logout. On another XP desktop with IE7, it works fine. Any ideas on why on one XP machine it's fine and another it isn't?

Thanks!

Where is the link to login if you're using 3.7.x?

On the profile page of the user you want to login as.
