# Can’t return as admin

 * If I change view to a non admin the option to change make is missing. I read 
   in a post thet there should be an icon in top right corner but can’t see any:
   [https://prnt.sc/ueJ8ri8qCfyD](https://prnt.sc/ueJ8ri8qCfyD). I use Elementor
   and a template for the header.
 * The admin bar is hidden for none admins so I can’t use that.
 * Is there another way except for logging out and in again?

 * Hi [@mellaker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mellaker/)
 * Since Elementor fully overwrites the admin interface there is not much I can 
   do there.
   However, on the frontend it should render an icon for this module if
   you have selected a view. It could be that the Elementor theme builder is blocking
   this, not sure.
 * For switching back when there is no admin bar see the FAQ: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/view-admin-as/#3.%20i%20can%27t%20switch%20back%21](https://wordpress.org/plugins/view-admin-as/#3.%20i%20can%27t%20switch%20back%21)
 * Cheers, Jory
