## Popis

Secure WordPress login with this two factor authentication (MFA / 2FA) plugin. Users
for whom it is enabled will require a one-time code in order to log in.

Features

 * Supports standard TOTP protocols (and so supports Google Authenticator, Authy,
   and many others).
 * Displays graphical QR codes for easy scanning into apps on your phone/tablet
 * MFA can be turned on or off by each user
 * Supports front-end editing of settings, via shortcode (i.e. users don’t need 
   access to the WP dashboard).
 * User login history
 * [si2flose_twofactor_user_settings]
 * Simplified user interface and code base for ease of use and performance
 * Alert users if someone appears to have found out their password, as indicated
   by successfully entering a password but repeatedly entering an incorrect MFA 
   code.
 * When using the front-end shortcode, require the user to enter the current MFA
   code correctly to be able to activate MFA

#### How Does MFA / 2FA Work?

This plugin uses the industry standard MFA / 2FA algorithm [TOTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-time_Password_Algorithm)
for creating One Time Passwords. These are used by Google Authenticator, Authy, 
and many other OTP applications that you can deploy on your phone etc.

A TOTP code is valid for a certain time. Whatever program you use (i.e. Google Authenticator,
etc.) will show a different code every so often.

#### Plugin Notes

This plugin began life in early 2025 as a friendly fork and enhancement of „wp mfa
authentication“ plugin.

This plugin requires PHP version 5.3 or higher and support for either php-openssl
or [PHP mcrypt](http://www.php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.installation.php). The vast 
majority of PHP setups will have one of these. If not, ask your hosting company.

 1. Search for ‚SI 2FA Login Security‘ in the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress.
 2. Click the ‚Install‘ button. (Make sure you picks the right one)
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress
 4. Find site-wide settings in 2FA User Settings ; find your own user settings in the
    top-level menu entry „2FA User Settings“.

If you want to add a section to the front-end of your site where users can configure
their two-factor authentication settings, use this shortcode:

    ```
    [si2flose_twofactor_user_settings]
    ```

## Nejčastější dotazy

### What is SI 2FA Login Security (MFA / 2FA) ?

Basically, it’s to do with securing your logins, so that there’s more than one link
in the chain needing to be broken before an unwanted intruder can get in your website.

By default, your WordPress accounts are protected by only one thing: your password.
If that’s broken, then everything’s wide open.

„MFA Factor Auth“ means adding a second requirement. Usually, this is a code that
comes to a device you own (e.g. phone, tablet) – so, someone can’t get into your
website without getting hold of your device. You can get a longer answer from Wikipedia.

### How does two factor authentication (MFA / 2FA) work?

Since „SI 2FA Login Security“ just means „a second something is necessary to get
in“, this answer depends upon the particular set-up. In the most common case, a 
numeric code is shown on your phone, tablet or other device. This code be sent via
an Authenticator; this then depends on the mobile phone network working. This plugin
does not uses that method. Instead, it uses a standard mathematical algorithm to
generate codes that are only valid once each, or for only for 30 seconds (depending
on which algorithm you choose). Your phone or tablet can know the code after it 
has been set up once (often, by just scanning a bar-code off the screen).

### What do I need to set up on my phone/tablet (etc.) in order to generate the codes?

This depends on your particular make of phone, and your preferences. Google have
produced a popular app called „Google Authenticator“, which is a preferred option
for many people because it is easy to use and can be set up via just scanning a 
bar code off your screen – follow this link, and ignore the first paragraph that
is talking about 2FA on your Google account (rather than being relevant to this 
plugin).

### What if I do not have a phone or tablet?

Many and various devices and programs can generate the codes. One option is an add-
on for your web browser; for example, here are some apps and add-ons for Google 
Chrome. Wikipedia lists various programs for different computers.

If you cannot get in and need to disable mfa-factor authentication, then add this
to your wp-config.php file, using FTP or the file manager in your hosting control
panel:

define(‚SI2FLOSE_FACTOR_DISABLE‘, true);

### What is the shortcode to use for front-end settings?

[si2flose_twofactor_user_settings]

### I deliberately entered a wrong password, and it let me login!

You have a password manager extension installed in your web browser, with the correct
password entered in it. It has automatically replaced your wrong password with the
right one from its saved store. This behaviour has been observed and confirmed by
several users. You can verify it by using the web developer tools in your browser
to look at the HTTP data sent to WordPress, and observe which password is actually
in it. You can also open a fresh web browser with no such extension in it to re-
test.

Note that the two factor authentication plugin has no mechanism to compare or approve
passwords; this is done by WordPress core. If the wrong password is sent, then this
is handled by WordPress, and the login will not proceed.
