I am having troubles when I try to use this feature. After I click on the link to "become this user" I recieve this error "Our records indicate that your password has changed. Your current session has been expired as a result. Please log out now. " I was wondering if anyone could give me a little advise

I'm guessing that you're using 6.4 or 6.4.1

If so, the "become user" function doesn't work because if a new security thing added.... 6.5 addresses the issue though.

Actually 6.4.2 will fix this - stay tuned. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Your right about the version, and I am glad to hear that it is not something that I did <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Good to hear that it will be fixed too.

Thanks

Does anyone know if 6.4.2 actually did fix this? I have 6.42 and I just "became this user" and now cannot undo it. I can't log out of "this user" and can't therefore log in as myself, and can no longer get in to Admin.

Thanks!

That'll happen if you don't set your cookies "site wide" in the config file. You'll have to manually delete your cookies and log back in. Before you use the feature in the future, make sure the cookies are set site wide in your config file.
