Sheffielder Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 Anyone know how to remove two factor authentication from the Admin CP? I enabled it but find it a real pain (yes yes I know the protection it offers) as I use a different browser on my phone/ipad than I do on my desktop to access the site I dont' know how to remove this - anyone know? checking through the two factor authentication in admin CP it's not showing that it's activated either which is frustrating as there's no on/off options
Meddysong Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 There are enabled/disabled options for each kind (Authy, Google Authenticator, Security Questions) rather than a global 2FA one. Just set them all to disabled.
Sheffielder Posted August 6, 2018 Author Posted August 6, 2018 All set to disabled - still asks for two factor username/password when trying to enter admin Cp Also this is unchecked
Meddysong Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 Oh, that's bizarre. Mine's set up just like that (and indicates that admins must set up 2fa) and I don't have to worry about it. When I disabled everything, I was no longer asked for 2fa. Sounds like you might need a support ticket.
Sheffielder Posted August 6, 2018 Author Posted August 6, 2018 Yeah I think so Thank you for your help - very much appreciated
Joel R Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 You set it up in your Account Settings from your profile.

Mark Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 What do you mean when you say "the two factor username/ password"? It sounds like you might have a .htaccess file in your admin directory, rather than using "proper" 2FA.
