when you click the link to log into a client’s account/cp from the administrative control panel, what user are you logging in as? the client, or the admin?
I think you are logged in as the client. When I have done this, I have not found that I have any different features or permissions as compared to when I would just log in directly as the client with their username and password.
there is no difference in logging in from the admincp and logging in normally
except that the client’s pw is supplied automatically?
Yes, that’s correct
