<p>Hi Dave,</p>
<p>This has never been possible as far as I know. Some components sometime allow to do "stuff on behalf of" other users, such as with the REF plug-in.</p>
<p>Such a feature would require low-level patching of EPrints::Repository->current_user (shouldn't be too hard to achieve though eg store a on_behalf_of cookie, have a validate method and a pin on the template to un-masquerade). This would be a sweet feature!</p>

<div dir="ltr">Hello All,
<div> </div>
<div>I was wondering whether the latest version of eprints allows administrators to masquerade as regular users. I know this was possible a few years ago, but what is the practice now? What works on the more recent versions of EPrints?</div>

<div>Thanks and best wishes,</div>
