What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

Before Publishing an article I need to make sure my players can see it, to do this I have to get someone else (or a second account) to help me see what my players would see.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

If there was a mode to temporarily view all articles/maps as (a) certain group(s).

What are other uses for this feature request?

Maybe make it so some groups can only see parts of an article?

The Team's Response

Closed due to low support after 20 days. Please feel free to resubmit in some week, but do read below for more information.   As a note, doing that is extremely hard because there are literally possibly hundreds if not thousands of iterations of what a subscriber is. if your world only utilizes 3 subscriber groups there are 3 in the power of 2 (9) possible subscriber types not even considering any authorial rights they might have. That means that there is no easy way to define what a subscriber is.   BUT there is a very easy way try anything you want at any time.  
  • Create a new acount with the same credentials followed by _test or _player like JohnDoe_player
  • Assign to that account the subgroups you want
  • Login using another browser or incognito mode
  • profit
  •   This will also allow you very quickly to make changes and see them reflected by simply refreshing another tab/browser.
