Re-enable use of Admin SID in Magento after SUPEE-11314
Note: This is a historical reference, not a current security baseline. Magento 1 is end-of-life.
After SUPEE-11314 or upgrade to Magento 1.9.4.5 use of Admin SIDs is disabled by default, which may affect certain modules (i.e. Sage Pay Suite MOTO payments).
To re-enable use of Admin SIDs we can add corresponding section into backend:
--- app/code/core/Mage/Core/etc/system.xml
+++ app/code/core/Mage/Core/etc/system.xml
