Admin Can Login as Any User

After activation, this adds two option to user profiles, only visible to administrators:

• Login as this user
• Force logout

The first allows the administrator to effectively login to the account without the user's password.  Everything behaves normally in this login state.  The only difference is that logging out will return the administrator back to their original account.
(note, please don't use this to log into another administrator's account, and then log into some other account from there, though I haven't tried what happens if you do this)

The second option just forces the user to log out if they have logged in somewhere.

Alternative version: Login As by burnacid

Thanks, can you tell me whether the updated version in the first post fixes the issue?

Wonderfull
The updated file worked like expected
After logging out from user's account, It  gives you an information that you are now logging back into your account
I will rate this plugin 10/10

I have an older version of this plugin (early last year) and I notice that when you log in as a user, it shows them as having visited the board in the Who's has been online today list.

Does the new version fix that?

I am using the latest version and it shows as a visit by the user when you log in.

Also - are you the goggalor that does sims mods?

I never saw that as a problem?
The plugin is meant to replicate the entire user account, which means it'll consider the user as visiting the board if you log in as the user (since you are masquerading as the user).

For some reason regular admin options disappear after using this plugin, I have tried to find the reason but could mot do it :-/

Idk if it is after activating, deactivating, or if related to another plugin.

Please make sure that you have {$adminoptions} variable in your member_profile template.

As far as I know, this plugin doesn't touch that variable at all. This plugin doesn't add anything to that template directly in activation process, and doesn't remove anything in deactivate process from it. The additional hijack options will be added "on the fly". This plugin only "care" the {$modoptions} variable in that template, not {$adminoptions} variable.

That's what I know.
