You can use devel module with switch user block On Mon, Aug 9, 2010 at 1:35 PM, James Benstead <james.benstead@gmail.com>wrote:
I'm very interested in UI design, and mapping the design of Drupal admin interfaces to pre-existing, long-standing frameworks. I'm currently looking for a module that allows a "site manager" to quickly switch to and from the root user of a D6 site - in my mind's eye this module displays a block with a password field and a submit button; entering the root password and hitting the button is broadly equivalent to "sudo su" in Unix. Once the user has root privileges, a click on the "step down" button in the same block returns them to their saved regular session.
My question: does a module exists that does this, or gets close to this? Or is it possible to cobble together this functionality by using existing functionality in already-existing D6 modules?
