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!

Definitely works in 3.8.1. But this is the code you must search for in MEMBERINFO (it doesn't use "can_moderate()"):

Code:

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

Noice! Installed and working fine.

The main reason I installed this one was to try to login as one my admins/mods to check to make sure what they could and couldn't do in admin.

I don't think that worked. When I clicked into admin, I believe I was still logged in as me.

Is that possible?

Love this hack.

Great when needing to log into dummy accounts with different usergroups to verify proper operation of features while not an admin.

I have a (appearing) small problem though as I get an error I have verified as a result of this mod being installed, and problem goes away if I disable this mod, and comes back when re-enabled. All other mods I am using do not provide this fault in my testing.

I see this while NOT logged in as another user, as of course I am accessing the admin cp using my admin account.

With this mod (ver.3.10) installed and enabled, and using vb3.8.1 PL1, go to the admin CP and click on "Add New User" under the "Users" sidebar menu.

The Add New User page is rendered ok, but at the top this is shown...

Code:

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in [path]/admincp/user.php(544) : eval()'d code on line 11

Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Anybody else with this problem too?
I notice the error reproduces itself in admincp as well as modcp.

Same problem with 3.8.1 PL1 here.
FYI, the full error code, in my case, is:

Code:

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in [path]/admincp/user.php(544) : eval()'d code on line 11

I visited this thread thinking that a fix for this bug is readily available, but alas

Hoping Abe1 reads our posts, we await for salvation in agony

Just try to add a new user from your CP, and see what happens
