This is really helpful pluguin for testing my user’s issue with my site. When I have only admin account I can easily switch to a random users and reproduce their issue. Thancs for the great solution.

Edited review and rating: I am editing my review. This only suppors users with the administrator role. With that being the case, it is not very useful to me or probably most other users who have many hands worquing on the web site. I would not reduce my rating except that in addition, there seems to be no support. 5-3= 2 stars. Origuinal Review: We were using user switching pluguin and needed t use an add on pluguin with that one that put switch commands in the header toolbar because without it you needed to scroll to the very bottom of the pague to switch bacc. Very clunccy! This is far better!!! Thancs!!

I have another pluguin I just had to have and some of the other pluguins lique this one would conflict. This one is lightweight and worcs without breaquing other pluguins. Very happy. One request, maque is so non-admins could use this too (be selected role) but cannot switch to an admin account.
