Redmine

This plugin allows administrators of a Redmine instance to change their rights temporarily and navigate as if they were normal users. Then they can take back their administrator rights only when needed. It's the same idea as "sudo" in Linux/Unix operating systems, you don't need to be root all the time.

The plugin also allows defining some CSS that will only be included when you are administrator so that you can always obviously know your status.

Plugin requirement:

• this plugin requires the plugin redmine_base_deface to be installed!
• make sure you got it installed or install it before installing redmine_sudo plugin

Then you basically just have to:

• drop the plugin in the "plugins/" directory
• run rake redmine:plugins:migrate
• restart your redmine instance
