Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
Activate the plugin to automatically create a ‘Switch To’ link in the list of action links for each user. The ‘Switch To’ link allows administrators to visit a user’s account without requiring the user’s username and password. This plugin facilitates the quick swapping between user accounts.
You can easily log in and log out of user accounts, visiting user accounts using the ‘Switch To’ link in the admin’s user panel. Additionally, you can switch back to your original account using the provided ‘Switch Back’ button in the user’s dashboard, admin bar, footer meta section, and instantly return to your admin panel.
