Hi there,

no idea if anyone already implemented this in some way...

it would be great if the admin could impersonate any user with a simple click on a link, in other words open a new browser window and see what the user would see after successful login. Paul Borgermans also suggested this already back in 2003 (http://issues.ez.no/804)

Wow thanks mates!

I searched for the keyword 'impersonate' via the search engine and didn't find anything... I'm glad to know there are already solutions here, I'm going to take a look!

Thanks,
