    Great tool! Worked for me out of the box with 7.2.6. This is the only reason why I would have needed ScriptRunner. Thanks for making your tool available for free!

    somehow it doesn't work on my 7.2.3 The issue seems to have been reported a number of times since 2014. 2 years and no fix? not nice. Anyway, I spent $10 and got script runner that works (and has a lot of other features)

    Hi Mircea,

    Do you suffer from this bug: https://tngtech-oss.atlassian.net/browse/USFJ-6 ? We have installed the add-on in several instances and it always worked great, so we did not see the need to fix anything. If that bug still occurs, we will have a look into it though.

    Scriptrunner is definitely an alternative though - but it will be much more expensive in bigger instances.

    Regards

    Marion

    This is great however we would like there to be an option to add multiple from and to group pairings. E.g. admin can switch to all users, but another group can only switch to limited group A, while a moderator can switch to a bit more powerful limited group B...

    Hi Accolade,

    Thanks for your kind words. The good news is, that this Add-on is Open Source. So you could go ahead and implement the features you need yourself, without having to wait for someone else to do it. We do accept pull requests.

    Please note that this feature has been requested before, so use this ticket (USFJ-18) to coordinate with others, trying to make this feature happen.

    This does not work at all in my server instance. The first time I invoked it with the keystroke "xx", it popped up a selection dialog, and wouldn't pick users. Subsequent invocations did not even pop up the dialog box.
