- = Masquerade =
- The Masquerade module allows users to temporarily switch to another user
- account. It keeps a record of the original user account, so users can easily
- switch back to the previous account.
- == Installation and Configuration ==
- To install the Masquerade module, extract the module to your modules folder,
- such as sites/all/modules. After enabling the module, it can be configured
- under Administer > Configuration > People > Masquerade. To enable users to
- masquerade, assign the appropriate "masquerade module" permissions to the roles
- available on your site. For example:
- * To allow members of the 'customer support' role to masquerade as any
- non-admin user, add the 'masquerade as user' permission to the role. In the
- Masquerade configuration, set 'administrator' as an administrator role
- to prevent customer support users from masquerading as those users.
- * To allow members of the 'tech support' role to masquerade as 'administrator', add the 'masquerade as admin' permission to the role. Then,
- in the Masquerade configuration, set 'administrator' as an
- administrator role.
- == Quick Switch Menu ==
- By default, when a user is selected for the 'Menu Quick Switch user', the Masquerade module adds two menu items to the 'Navigation' menu:
- * Masquerade as 'the user selected': When clicked, the user can quick switch to the user selected.
- * Switch back: This menu item appears while masquerading so that you can switch back to your original user.
