    That’s quite a specific setup ?? so the short answer is no.

    I’m sure this can be achieved by using the user capability checks in the plugin, but you’d have to look into that yourself. Take a look at the filters attached to map_meta_cap and user_has_cap as a starting point.

    Sorry I can’t be much more help

    Thanks for the prompt reply.

    I’m just trying to consider the possibilities for allowing users who use the same email address to switch between themselves, and only themselves.

    Thank you for the pointers, I’ll take a look. If I get anywhere I’ll post my findings!

    Hey @cavtec – I need exactly the same functionality. Any luck?

    Unfortunately not.

    I think its an interesting concept, but it is definitely niche in its usage.

    Having said that, this plugin is fantastic if you are looking for a quick way to use your website as a specific user.

    Thanks. I may post the project on Codeable, given @johnbillion mentioning it’s feasible to customize.

    Just putting this out there, in case anyone has some pointers…I have a store project that requires we assign users to specific groups within one company, so that users access only specific products, and so spending can be tracked per group. The groups equate to the company’s departmental budgets. The rub is that some employees are associated with more than one group/budget. Thus we’d like the user to switch between user accounts (one per group), only for groups that they belong to. Using Woocommerce, with the Groups plugin by itthinx.
