This plugin lets super admins quickly test other user roles, to see what other users experience.
<ul>
<li>Super admins get a Test User Role menu under the Howdy menu.</li>
<li>Roles being tested will be reset on user login or logout.</li>
</ul>
Warning: When a role is being tested, the user role in the database is actually modified. Note also that the <code>set_user_role</code> action is fired when going in and out of testing.

Test User Role

Great time saver for testing what other users have access to. Well done.
Thank you Mitcho!



Just what I needed

Quickly test other user roles from a super admin account, to see what other users experience.
