Hi there,

I have just realised that apparently admins should have the ability to "sign in as" any of the users of the forum. I don't seem to have this option available to me for some reason. Do you have any idea why that might be?

From what I can tell it should be an option on their profile in Admin CP correct?

It isn't supported by the WordPress SSO (or really any SSO that is session-based).

Maybe they don't have the "Can sign-in as member?" permission

@stoo2000 Ok thank you, is there any way around that if we need to sign in as a member to test an issue without switching off the sso plugin?

In theory, if you have similar functionality in your WordPress install it may work, something like https://wordpress.org/plugins/login-as-user/

Alternatively, temporarily disabling the SSO will allow you to use the functionality. I do have an open report to look into the possibility of allowing this feature to work with the SSO. That'll be in a future version if it's possible.

@stoo2000 thanks very much, i'll give the WP route a go.

Yes it would be helpful to have the capability in a future version of the SSO plugin, you've got my vote for that.
