Admin permissions

Hi everybody,

As a admin, do I have the right to access all users messages that happened in my social network, if yes, how I would do it, Does it need to install a plugin, by the way, I have the 2.3 Elgg version. I need to see all the peer-to-peer messages that happened in the social network, if someone has send a message to another member, and what is the content. 

  • You can do it by default:

    your-site/messages/inbox/username
    
    your-site/messages/sent/user​name
  • Using the Login As plugin bundled with Elgg you can switch the user when logged in as admin and then view the site as you would be logged in by that user. You would also be able to access the inbox of that user then. Switching the user happens not secretly though. On the site it appears as this other user is really logged in.

    If the Login As plugin is not an option, you would have to do it like RvR suggested by entering the corresponding url directly in the browser.
