How Do I Add 2FA to My WordPress Login?

Adding 2FA to your WordPress login is not difficult, but there are a few things you need to know in order to do it properly.

First, you need to decide which type of 2FA you want to use. There are a few different options, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

One option is to use a code generated by a password manager such as LastPass or 1Password. This is the most secure option because the code is generated on your own device and cannot be accessed by anyone else.

Another option is to use a YubiKey. This is a small device that you can insert into the USB port on your computer.

When you log in, you will need to type in the YubiKey’s code in order to log in.

The final option is to use a Google authenticator. This is the easiest option, but it is not as secure as the other options.

If you want to use Google authenticator, you will need to create a Google account and then add the Google authenticator plugin to your WordPress site.

Once you have chosen your 2FA method, you will need to set it up on your WordPress site. The easiest way to do this is to install the 2FA plugin from the WordPress plugin directory.

Once the plugin is installed, you will need to configure it.

The first step is to choose which account you want to use for 2FA. You will need to enter your username and password into the plugin’s configuration screen, and then click the “Generate New Code” button.

You will then be prompted to enter your 2FA code. You can either type the code into the text box on the plugin’s configuration screen, or you can copy the code and paste it into the “Code” field on your WordPress login screen.

Once you have entered your 2FA code, you will need to save the configuration screen and reload your WordPress site. You will now be able to log in using your 2FA code.
