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!

Hey,
there is a way to make spesific users protected?

haytham · #**183** 08-28-2008, 02:01 PM

For some reason it keeps giving me this message:

You are currently logged in as another user. Click here to log back into your account.

and I can't log in to any member's account.

Was doing that to me as well, I uninstalled this version & reinstalled the old one, it works great with 3.7.2.

Thanks. I'll give it a try.

...The older version can't be found. It refers back to here. Now I have to go dig it up from my older CDs.

Uninstalled, doesnt' work in vBulletin 3.7.2

dt_truck11 · #**187** 08-31-2008, 01:47 AM

are u sure u installed it right? it works for me on 3.7.3 so it should work on 3.7.2. perhaps its conflicting with another mod?

Abe,
This mod seems to be working perfectly on my site. Our intent in installing it is purely to be able to deal with individual functionality issues more easily.

Is there any way to make the 'Private Messages' area off-limits with this mod?

If there were, I think that would largely resolve whatever issues folks might have with the potential to violate privacy with this hack. As it stands, even fellow administrators could conceivably log-in to one anothers accounts and read PMs.

Just wondering if the coding could be 'tweaked' to keep the PM area private.

Thanks in advance, and props on a great hack.

+1 Why i have not installed this. I too want to keep pm's private.

Remember to turn the add-on on via admincp/usergroups/admin rights! Default is "no"!

Help! I can't even find this code in the member info. I'd love to have the link on the users info.

<if condition="$show['giveinfraction']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="infraction.php?$session[sessionurl]do=report&u=$userinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[give_infraction]</a></td>
</if>

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