Updating QC User Impersonation Through Joomla

Updating QC User Impersonation Through Joomla 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 → System → Update → Extensions.

Update workflow

  1. Take the normal site backup appropriate to your change process.
  2. Use Joomla update discovery or install the current QCUI ZIP normally.
  3. Do not uninstall first unless you intentionally want its token/audit tables removed.
  4. After the update, confirm the plugin preserved its previous enabled/disabled state.
  5. Open the plugin and verify the token lifetime setting, then run a clean eligible-user handoff test.

Current update source

The manifest registers https://quantacade.com/updates/qcloginasuser.xml as the QCUI update server. Version 1.0.03 is schema-neutral; its main change is fresh-install auto-enable compatibility, not a database redesign.

Operational context

For Updating QC User Impersonation Through Joomla, 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.
