Love this app so much. ?

@Adriano Faria is it at all possible to get a column added to the linkedaccounts_log that includes the account ID number of the account being switched to?

It has the parent account number, but I'd like to be able to generate a list of all accounts that have been logged into (including subaccounts) over a period of time. Having that subaccount ID number would help greatly!

You already has that information in Logs:

Member X logged in as Member Y.

Not quite what I'm looking for. I'd like to access the member ID number of the subaccount, not just see what account it was. 

Essentially I want to create a block that lists all accounts that were accessed from their parent accounts in a period of time (a "who was online" list, basically), the easiest way to do that would be to use the information in linkedaccounts_log as it already contains the timestamp. But without the member ID number of the subaccount in the table, it's difficult to fetch the full username/link/group information from core_members.

Does that make more sense?

@Adriano Faria any thoughts on getting that member ID number column in the log table?

No. I’ll think about it when I have to release a new version. 

@Adriano Faria

I can't seem to change the author when editing.

If I start something has user1 and then change it to user2, it shows user2 as the info but the actual post is still user 1. I'll PM you the link so you can see, I'm using the latest version of this application and IPS Suite v4.3.4

Are you using latest? This was already reported and fixed: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/419734-linked-accounts-post-as/?do=findComment&comment=2743109

 

Yes, could it be that I started the topic before upgrading?

I don’t think so. So are your talking about the post author or the “Edited by...” thing?

Yes.

It's weird then.

The post shows as me but the information shows as the intended account. When editing, it doesn't seem to match the author in both areas.

The post author? I’m confused. ?

Check the link I PM'ed you bud.

Author - User 1

But below the post actually shows as 'User 2'.

---

If I post a new topic as 'User 1'

and then edit to user 'User 2', the app changes the author information but the actual post is unchanged.

I can see that. It’s the terms you’re using that makes things confusing. 

What you mean by “edit to user”? 

Are you logged as main account and creating a topic as another member?

What are you doing exactly?

Wait,

I'm logged in as user 1, so editing the author won't change this? I don't see why it would alter the info, but not the actual post area.

Joey, I need you to help me so I can help you, first by understanding the issue. 

Again: what you mean by “editing the author”.

Let me try to guess: you created a topic as another member and when you esit THE POST it changes the author to your account. Is that what you’re trying to say?

No.

I created a topic that I intended to post as a bot account, I started it as myself by mistake but when I edit - I have the option to switch the author which I have done. It changes who started the topic, but the post remains in my account (this hasn't changed to the bot account).

Oh ok, now it's clear. I'll take a look.

Ok, just fixed this. Actually, the "author" fields shouldn't appear when you edit the topic; only when you create it. Now you can also change the author when you edit first post.

What's New in Version 3.1.5:

• Fix: Add ability to change the topic author if you're editing the first post of the topic

@Mousie, I also added a new column (log_subaccount_id) in the linkedaccounts_logs table.

Has anyone encountered a problem where occasionally users how post normally with this plugin present and the post author shows up as Guest?

I'm still narrowing it down if it is the Application, but I am wondering if this has ever been a problem reported. It's happening on maybe 5% of our posts.

Let me know if you can provide steps to reproduce it.

Sure thing, I'm still looking into it. I'll update this either way.

Ok, I have some great news, I have been able to re-produce it 100% consistently now.

Here is what I can now tell you:

• The problem occurs when the plugin is installed & enabled.
• The problem occurs regardless of the Permissions enabled switch in the plugin setting is turned on or not.
• The problem occurs when editing the initial topic post of a thread.
• The problem does not occur when editing replies of a topic.
• Even though the problem occurs, the edit does take affect.
• The problem occurs 100% of the time in the above-described scenario.
• The problem creates the following error on screen (as an administrator, obviously):

• The problem creates the corresponding entry in the System Log (not sure if it matters that the author_name is a name (Guest) when an adminsitrator gets an error on screen, versus the ID when its in the log or if that's normal.

• The problem happened to both members, and me as an Administrator while testing based on the above exact steps.
• I am running 4.3.4

I would be extremely curious to know if you are able to replicate this problem based on the steps I provided, or not.

 

 

So to summarize, happens when you edit topic first post? Latest version added this feature but it worked fine; the authors are changed. I’ll sed if I can reproduce and if there’s something in my logs.

I can confirm this happened on my site.

I'm still running 4.2.9 on that particular site, so I just assumed it was because I was running 4.2.9.  I just disabled the plugin until I upgraded because I was the only one using it.
