Entering the Target User's Exact Joomla Username

Entering the Target User's Exact Joomla Username explains the current QCUI 1.0.03 behavior and how it affects a Super User who needs to inspect the Joomla frontend as an eligible user.

Location: Joomla Administrator.

Procedure

  1. Open the QCUI administrator popup.
  2. In Username, type the exact Joomla username stored for the target account.
  3. Do not substitute the display name or email address.
  4. Click Login; if the username is not found, QCUI returns you to Joomla’s Users view with an error.

Verify the result

  • The original administrator tab remains authenticated.
  • The new tab either reaches the target frontend or displays a specific eligibility/token error.
  • The target is visibly identified when impersonation succeeds.

Operational context

For Entering the Target User's Exact Joomla Username, remember that QCUI has no separate component dashboard or remote authorization service. The System plugin owns the launcher/handoff/banner behavior locally inside Joomla. If what you see differs from these instructions, verify the installed plugin version and active Joomla template/session configuration before assuming another QCUI screen or service exists.
