Question about paid feature and disabling WP 2FA

    Hi,

    I’m looking into the paid pro version specifically for the “Trusted devices (don’t ask for 2FA code)” but also I have a question about “One-click 2FA”.

    Does One-click 2FA imply getting notification on a device like your phone that a device is attempting to login “is that you” sort of feature? -if so that is great and further simplifies things.

    Second, I sometimes run into issues where I have to disable WP 2FA. I’m unaware of a simple and quick way to disable this plugin besides renaming in temporarily or deleting it or cli based disabling(not always available). Maybe a hook like define( ‘DISABLE_TWO_FACTOR_AUTH’, true ); line in wp-config.php or something else is available?

    Thanks!

    Hello @wpfed

    Thank you very much for using our plugin.

    For more information about the Premium edition of the plugin please send us an email at support@wpwhitesecurity.com. This forums are for supporting the free edition of the plugin.

    In regards to your suggestion, what type of issues are you encountering? As in if you want to temporarily disable 2FA, you can deactivate the plugin, no? Or are you encountering some other type of issues during which you cannot access the dashboard?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi @robert681

    Thanks for getting back. I will use the email address for the premium questions I have.

    As for the deactivating, it’s actually for cases where I can’t log into the dashboard for whatever reason, then my only option is disable the plugin in SFTP. Could be for troubleshooting purposes as well. I was blocked a few times from logging in due to 2FA plugin not working correctly so that’s my main concern but it’s not the end of the world.
