Re: Change Role on the fly when logged in for testing
I am no longer able to login and see my Admin, Extensions, Plugins, etc tabs.
I was testing out various access options using Switch Role plugin, and while i was switched to “Staff Writer” I logout… but when i try to logon again as Admin my Admin ID is still stuck i nstaff writer!! I can i reset. I can’t login to see admin tabs?

Re: Change Role on the fly when logged in for testing
Did you install v0.1 of smd_faux_role?
I think the closest you get to a solution is this post by Stef. Sounds like a doable PHPmyAdmin affair.

well i must have 0.20 installed
('smd_faux_role',1,'Stef Dawson','stefdawson.com/','0.20','Switch user privs on the fly so you can see what other accounts see'
I thought I would try a restore a DB from backup.
And so I just downloaded the DB.sql file from a backup done last month. and lo and behold i came across the line posted above.

OK, I think you should tell Stef in the topic I linked to about the issue here.
In order to fix your privs, I meant you should go into PHPmyAdmin, table txp_users, column privs, and set the value for your login back to 1.
