If you are security aware, you may already have the Google Authenticator app installed on your smartphone, using it for two-factor authentication on your Gmail or Google Apps account. The two-factor authentication requirement can be enabled on a per-user basis. You could enable it for your administrator account, but log in as usual with less privileged accounts. == Installation == 1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. Enter a description on the Users -> Profile and Personal options page, in the Google Authenticator section. 3. Scan the generated QR code with your phone, or enter the secret manually (remember to pick the time based one). 4. Remember to hit the **Update profile** button at the bottom of the page before leaving the Personal options page. 4. That's it, your WordPress blog is now a little more secure. == Frequently Asked Questions == = Can I use Google Authenticator for WordPress with the Android/iPhone apps for WordPress? = No, that won't work, but you could create a special account for mobile usage and choose not to enable the usage of Google Authenticator for this account. = I want to update the secret, should I just scan the new QR code after creating a new secret? = No, you'll have to delete the existing account from the Google Authenticator app on your smartphone before you scan the new QR code, that is unless you change the description as well. = Sometimes I am unable to log in using this plugin, the first code never works, what's wrong ? = The Google Authenticator verification codes are time based, so it's crucial that the clock in your phone is accurate and in sync with the time on the server where your WordPress installation is hosted. == Screenshots == 1. The enhanced log-in box. 2. Google Authenticator section on the Profile and Personal options page. 3. QR code on the Profile and Personal options page. 4.
