How to display a page to manager users, without caring what they're logged in as on the front end?

Hello,

I've sorta found the answer to this question, but not for my scenario.

We have a special page accessible only to the Admin logged in to the manager. We are also using the Login plugin to allow the general public to login to the front end of the site. Here is what is going on:

1. Admin is logged into manager, not logged into front end at all - Special Page works
2. Admin is logged into manager, logged in as Admin on front end - Special Page works
3. Admin is logged into manager, logged in as PublicUser on front end - Special Page is not visible

How do I make #3 work? I want Admin to be able to see the special page regardless of what they're logged in as on the front end.

It depends on how the page is protected, but I'm guessing you have a Resource Group Access ACL entry allowing the user to access the page with a context of 'mgr'. If so, you need to add one just like it, but with a context of 'web'.
