Dirk has already put a wishlist item up for something similar at https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/900983 There he wants to let users know when an admin was in the account.
I would add to your proposal that institution admins should be able to see a report for the members they are managing and the site admins can see everything. With the access reports in 1.5 we can reduce some of the necessity to "login as" another user, but it's not entirely avoidable. What would you say to also display to a user when an admin had accessed the account? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1027574 Title: Improve logging of what admins do while masqueraded Status in Mahara ePortfolio: Triaged Bug description: Loginas is a great feature for admins to check permissiosn as a special user. In several environments its seen very critical because admins can change anything as the user who is logged in. Its not documented that the changes are not done by the user and the admin did them. It makes ot of sense to document that an admin changed anything in the name of the user. I've two ideas how to do this: 1. mark all changs in the interface as "changed by admin [name of admin] [date and time] of change". 2. write changes done by admin when logged in as a user into a seperate database and create a report page that shows this database information sortable by date, user and admin who made changes. This report should include: - date and time of login as - date and time when login as was finished - did admin make changes in the name of the user? - who logged in as other user (name of admin) - login as which user [name of user] - where was change done [URL] - old entry from user - changed and stored new entry by admin The report should only by accessible for site admins. The report should be downloadable. If files were added or deleted or renamed the information should be included but notthe file istself.
