Compatibility with Pantheon in Git mode #129

Open tamala73 opened 1 year ago

tamala73 commented 1 year ago

Description

Using Pantheon as our WebOps platform.

When in SFTP mode the plugin works well. I am able to mimic a user from another role or a specific user within the WordPress site.

SFTP-MODE

If I change the mode in Pantheon to Git mode or in Production where Pantheon's workflow disables write access the plugin does not work. It does not display the 'View As' menu item in the Admin Bar.

Hi @tamala73

Can you explain to me what Git mode does exactly? It seems to be that this plugin simply isn't loaded in Git mode.

Edit Addition: This plugin doesn't require write access to anything other than that database. It also relies on WP core functions like plugin_dir_path and plugin_dir_url.

Cheers, Jory

Using Pantheon you have two ways to get to your files -- through SFTP or GIT modes. GIT mode locks down the site so you are not able to access files using SFTP only through commits and pushes via GIT.

Interesting that the menu option is not available then, I may need to contact Pantheon support to see if they have any additional info that maybe I can provide to you.
