Enable Sign in as Different User in SharePoint 2013

Introduction: By default Sign in as Different User menu option is hidden in SharePoint 2013 and we have only two options (My Settings and Sign Out) under Current user name but sometimes it is required to give this option as well. So next, I would like to introduce a way to enable Sign as Different User option in SharePoint 2013 Site.

Before Change:                                               

After making some Changes:

Step 1. Locate this path in SharePoint Server system and open.

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\CONTROLTEMPLATES

Step 2. Find the Welcome Asp.net User Control (Welcome.ascx) file and open this file in SharePoint Designer or notepad.

Step 3. Search for the XML node with id=”ID_RequestAccess”. This XML node will be looking like:

<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate runat=”server” id=”ID_RequestAccess”
                 Text=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_requestaccess%>”
                 Description=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_requestaccessdescription%>”
                 MenuGroupId=”100″
                 UseShortId=”true”
                 Sequence=”300″
                 />
Just add one more XML node after this node.

<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate runat=”server” ID=”ID_LoginAsDifferentUser”
Text=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_loginasdifferentuser%>”
Description=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_loginasdifferentuserdescription%>”
MenuGroupId=”100″
Sequence=”100″
UseShortId=”true”
/>

If everything is fine, your Welcome.ascx file will be looking like below:

Now you are done with everything.

Step 4. Go to your SharePoint Site and refresh it. Then open the drop down lookup and you will see that the new option Sign in as Different User would be there.
