Support Me

Sometimes you just need some help, and when you're working privately with support personnel for a plugin or theme, creating temporary admin accounts can be a pain.

Support Me makes creating accounts for support purposes a snap:

  • You can set support accounts to expire after a set number of minutes, hours, or days, or not expire at all.
  • Once a support account expires, it is automatically deleted.
  • No more making up fake email addresses or dealing with the full user registration process. Just set an expiration and generate an account.
  • You can manage support account sessions just like any other user account.
  • Easily see when support accounts expire in a new "Expires" column on the Users screen.

Support accounts are granted full admin privileges with the caveat that they can't create, edit, promote, or delete other users. Support Me is also fully compatible with debugging plugins such as Debug Bar.

Note: Support Me requires PHP 5.3 minimum.

Note: This plugin was acquired in October 2024 and is no longer maintained by me.
