Logging into customer accounts using admin password

Hi,

I did some searching on ways to access customer accounts and I came about the "Master Password" add on:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=190

However, I tried it and it didnt work for me. Im guessing it might be because it hasnt been updated in 5 years.

Does anyone know of another solution?

Thanks,

Re: Logging into customer accounts using admin password

The one you used has a wrinkle - it uses the password from admin account 1. If you don't have an admin account 1 (because you deleted it or something), you won't be able to use this mod.

You can still use:

Re: Logging into customer accounts using admin password

Thanks for the help...

I entered the SQL into the admin page but it came up with an error, this is what it looked like:

`INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function) VALUES ('Master Password', 'MASTER_PASS', 'yourpassword', 'This password will allow you to login to any customer's account.', 1, 23,'now(), now(), NULL, NULL);

Don't use copy and paste - use the file selection and point to that file. (In Admin->Tools->Install SQL patches)
