​
Eggy Linked Accounts is an Always Free XenForo add-on that lets members link separate accounts and switch between them without repeatedly logging out and back in.

Each linked account remains its own XenForo user with separate posts, profile, permissions, alerts and identity.

To create a link, the request must be approved while signed into the target account. This helps prevent accounts from being linked unless the user has access to both sides of the request.

Features​


• Secure account linking with target account approval
• Quick switching between linked accounts
• Choose a primary account for the linked account group
• Remove linked accounts from the group
• Manage incoming and outgoing link requests
• Accept, reject and cancel requests
• Link requests expire after 7 days
• Up to 20 accounts can belong to one linked account group
• Prevents linking to nonexistent users
• Prevents switching to accounts that are not linked
• Usergroup permission for creating and managing linked account relationships
• Dedicated Linked Accounts page in the user account area
• Linked Accounts shortcut in the XenForo visitor menu
• Tested on desktop and mobile
• Every linked account keeps its own XenForo identity

Switching accounts changes the active XenForo user, so posts and other actions are made as the account currently in use.

The add-on was originally requested by a roleplaying community that needed a maintained way to manage multiple character and player accounts. Eggy Linked Accounts has been built as a general multi-account system, so it is not limited to roleplaying forums.

It can also suit communities where members legitimately use alternate, staff, test or other separate accounts.

Huge credit to the developer (Eggy) for offering this as a free add-on while packing in the kind of functionality many paid tools would be proud to have. It keeps every XenForo account fully separate - profiles, posts, permissions, alerts, and identity intact - while making approved account switching painless instead of the usual logout-and-login treadmill. The secure approval process, request expiration, group limits, primary-account controls, permission settings, and incoming/outgoing request management show real thought went into keeping it useful without making it a moderation headache. For roleplay communities, staff teams, testers, and anyone with legitimate alternate accounts, this is a remarkably complete, polished solution that the developer could easily have charged for. It works just as described, 'out of the box' - thank you, Eggy!

Thank you, I really appreciate the review. I’m glad you’re finding it useful and that everything worked smoothly out of the box. I wanted this one to be genuinely useful to the community, so it’s great to hear it’s doing exactly that. :-)
