[Charlie G]

au lait updated Login as User (LAU2) with a new update entry:

1.2.9



Read the rest of this update entry...

This will be the first time I have updated this add on.
What is the procedure to update it, do I need to uninstall the existing version then install this one or is there a simpler method.
We have only been with XF for under a year so still learning.

Download the new version then use the "Addon>>Install/upgrade from archive" button. Leave the "Overwrite existing files for add-on rebuilds / upgrades" option unchecked.

And here we are, already at the penultimate entry in our "Have you seen...?" series for XF 2.1. If you haven't seen the previous entries about what's coming in XF 2.1, check them out here.

As ever, to ensure you're kept up to date, we strongly recommend giving that "Watch forum" link a... well... click, I guess... and make sure you enable email notifications if you haven't done so already

Thank you @philmckrackon

Looks like I need to edit my config.php file first to allow this. Will have a look later.

Does the latest update also support the latest XF 2.2.15 or is it for 2.3 only?

Love this addon when I need to problem solve something for a member.

I found another use for this addon as well.

If you go to the main template for the addon you can easily add additional links to the staff bar without the need for another addon. Simply look at the current links in the addon, copy and change them as needed and you can add shortcuts to often used items in the Admin Panel or shortcuts/links to anything you want.

Hi @au lait, last update breaks compatibility with https://xenforo.com/community/resources/signup-abuse-detection-and-blocking.6812/ multi account detection bypass

If i add this line back to XF/Pub/Controller/Login.php

$loginPlugin->lau_login = true;

I can stealth login again

This add-on is very useful. If you have time, please help update it. Sincerely, thank you.

@JulesR It's already 2.3 compatible.

Is it possible to edit the Login to "Login as user?" I looked for phrases but was not successful in finding the right place.

Where could I make this edit?

Thanks!

This is a great addon. I have installed it and can see the settings under the options, but I can't see the login option for the users anywhere. I have XF 2.3.3 and PHP 8.3. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.
