[TH] Login As User [Deleted]

[Jake B.]

Its working after disabled Show Pop-up Menu option. One more bug does not showing A link in the admin bar will allow them to quickly return to their own account at any time.

Example:

My install show:

Yeah, that had changed in one of the updates Jon made, you can just click on the red "Logged in as XXXX" button and it'll give you the option to switch to another user, or back to your own account

If you have given your (or your group) the permission "No reason required for login as user" then it would not ask for a reason

Great but where are reason log are created if we put the reason?

I'm having an issue. I have enabled this feature for one user (myself). In my user permissions I have set this feature to allow. When I try to login as a user it says it gives the "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action." error.

Do you just have the permission "Login as different user" or both permissions "Login as different user" and "No reason required to login as user" enabled? Also, are you getting any errors in your error logs?

Oh I have both, sorry. And no, I don't get any server error logs.

Try having the permission "Login as different user" set to allow and the other to not set. See if that makes a difference at all?

Nope, does the exact same thing.

Nope, does the exact same thing.

Are you setting this on the default Administrative user group or a new user group you created?

This is not on a usergroup. This a user permission.

Version 1.2.1 works without issues.

Set permissions for User Group Permissions

Set permissions for User Group Permissions

Well you see, it was working before. And I have other administrators who I don't want having the permission.

 

[Floyd R Turbo]

@Matt C. you also have to select what user groups you are allowed to log in as. There is a checklist for all usergroups. So if you just check "resgistered" and "unconfirmed" then you can log in as anyone

Specific user permissions

 

[Floyd R Turbo]

Thought: before you log in as the user, what page are you viewing? This error:

When I try to login as a user it says it gives the "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action." error."

indicates to me that you are on a page that the destination user cannot view, due to their lack of permissions. So after you log in as them, it reloads the page you were on and you get this error, because that user can't see the page. So are you actually logged in as the user you are intending to log in as?

Okay that fixed it. Thank you!

Oh the permission came as a popup from the login as user addon, not for a specific page.
