A Django middleware which allows you to view the site on behalf of a user.
Project description
A simple middleware which allows a superuser to view the site on behalf of another user.
This idea originated within Disqus, and has served quite well in helping debug user problems.

pip install django-view-as
Add the middleware:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'viewas.middleware.ViewAsMiddleware',

'django.contrib.sessions',
'viewas',
)

'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
)
Usage
Load any page with an html response type, hit the tilda key (~), and you’ll see a new toolbar at the bottom of the page. Enter a username to change who you’re viewing the site as.
