=== View Admin As === Contributors: keraweb Tags: admin, view, roles, users, switch, capabilities, caps Requires at least: 3.8 Tested up to: 4.3.1 Stable tag: 4.3.1 View the WordPress admin as a specific role or user. == Description == This plugin will add an menu item to your admin bar where you can change your view on the WordPress admin without the need to login with a user that has this role! If you've selected a user, you can also change this user's preferences; like screen settings on various admin pages. = Overview = * Change to a default view of a role * Change to the view of a user to see their capabilities and settings * Edit this user's screen preferences and settings * Do this all withour loggin out and easily go back to your own user view! = Compatibility = I think this plugin will work with most other plugins though I've found two allready that have their own capability management or have some kind of actions that influence the admin. Fixed compatibility issues: * WooCommerce - removes the admin bar for the roles "customer" and "subscriber". This functionality will stay the same, but when you switch a view in the admin it will override this setting. (You need the admin bar to switch back to default) * Pods - has its own capability management to determine if the current user is an admin or not. I've user the build in capabilities from Pods to determine wether to show the Pods menu when you are in an other view. = I can't switch back! = Just add "?reset-view=true" in the address bar and you're good to go! This will work on all pages as long as you are logged in. Example: http://www.your.domain/wp-admin/?reset-view=true = It's not working! = Please let me know through the support and add a plugins and themes list! :) = Why? = I've created this at first for myself since I'm a developer and often need to see the outcome one roles which my clients use. Note: this plugin will only be usefull for admins (network super admins or regular admins). It will do NOTHING for other roles. == Installation == Installation of this plugin works like any other plugin out there. Either: 1. Upload the zip file to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress Or search for "View Admin As" via your plugins menu. == Screenshots == 1. Admin View Selector 2. Admin Default view (view mode: off) 3. Admin Role view (role: Editor) 4. Admin User view (user: Mr. Random, role: Author) == Changelog == = 1.0 = Created from nothingness just to be one of the cool kids. Yay! == Other Notes == You can find me here: * [Keraweb](http://www.keraweb.nl/ "Keraweb") = Ideas? = Please let me know through the support page!
