FAQ

How do I gain access to my website if I get locked out using the Google Authenticator?

You can obtain access to your website by one of the below options:

  1. If you have an additional administrator account whose Two-Factor or 2FA is not enabled yet, you can log in with it.
  2. If you had set up KBA questions as 2FA earlier, you can use them as an alternate method to log in to your website instead of the configured 2FA method.
  3. Rename the plugin from FTP – this disables the Two Factor Authentication – WordPress 2FA (WP 2FA) plugin and you will be able to log in without 2FA.

You can select the specific two-factor authentication(2FA) or two-step authentication methods under the Login Settings tab.

I have been working with miniOrange’s Google Authenticator – WordPress Two Factor Authentication – 2FA, Two Factor, OTP SMS and Email | Passwordless login plugin for many years and everything works perfectly, recently I had a problem and requested support, the service and work of the Xecurify team is the best, but Vikas M Bharati has a 5 star rating. I recommend the plugin and if you have any problems, rest assured that you will never be alone.

On return from a trip overseas when trying to login to my WP sites I got strange messages and found that the 2FA had been turned off. This appears to have been because the miniOrange authenticator I have used for many years has now been retired. I tried setting up Google Authenticator but was getting errors. I contacted support and after a couple of Google Meet sessions with Vikas he was able to talk me through some adjustments to the plugin settings and files and now all appears to work well. Thanks for quick and excellwnt support for a free product.
