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 must be doing something very wrong. I installed it, and went to the usergroups section to enable it for the administrators group, but the option to do so is not there. Has that changed?

Haven't installed this yet, but I guess you shouldn't be looking in the usergroup permissions but in the admin permissions instead.

Edit: Now installed, and my remark above is correct. It does say so in the instructions by the way:
Go to (admincp -> Usergroups -> Administrator Permissions -> [Edit Permissions])

Well, I have on my production forum tested with ALL hacks disabled individually as well as all at once, with exception to this one, and the problem persists.

I am at wits end, and do not find any conflicts, etc.

Dont know what else to do.

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...

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.


Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

I notice the error reproduces itself in admincp as well as modcp.
Same problem here with 3.8.2! I have the same message error when i try to create a new user.

That is a problem with this mod.

Any solution?

I'm right there with everyone else. I've used similar hacks for a long time and use it regularly. I'll look into it myself tomorrow.

Nice work though!!

ok... the problem is inside this plugin code!

I'll get into it tomorrow and see what the issue is!

But here is a work around for now... "This will only remove the ability to login as member from admincp"

Disable the plugin for the admincp link - (see attached image)

Working good for me, but can it be altered to stop admin using it on other admin, or supermods using it on admin ?

I used this on vb 3.6.4 and worked great. Upgraded forum to 3.8.2 and upgraded this plugin to latest.

I found selection in the user page in the admin cp (and works fine) but I can't find the option to 'login as user' in the user's profile page on 3.8.2. Is it still there?

Check the product's options. There is such setting there.
