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.
