This plugin allows you as an admin or a store manager to quickly switch between user accounts and act as the customer in your store.
With the front-end based user switcher tool you are able to add a product to cart and create an order for your customer. This can be very useful if you offer phone orders and invoice the customer manually via a separate invoicing system.
Security
- Only users with the ability to edit other users can switch between accounts.
- Users can only switch to other users with the same or lower capabilities.
- Uses the WordPress cookie authentication system when switching between accounts.
- Uses the WordPress nonce security system which means that only users that intends to switch user accounts can execute the user switching functions in the plugin.
Plugin usage
- When the plugin is activated and you are logged in as one of the roles defined in the plugin settings, the front-end user switching tool will be visible in the top left corner.
- When you have switched to another user, a descriptive text will remind you that you are logged in as another user.
- Click on the Log out link to switch back to the account you where originally logged in as.
