One feature that is missing from Mura’s site member tools is the ability for an administrator to log in to the site as a particular user.

So I hacked together a very quick tool which will allow you to do just that.

Once installed, go to the plugins page for your site, and click on the name of the Impersonate User plugin.

You’ll then get a form in which you can enter either a UserID (a UUID) or a username. Click the button, and you’ll be immediately logged out of the admin, logged in as the requested user, and directed to the site’s home page.

You can now see the site exactly as that user would, even though you don’t know what their password is…

You can find the source code on the plugin’s github repository, and you can download the plugin here.
