Deactivating TFA for specific user

    Hey 🙂 I switched from Miniorange to your plugin and it works perfectly! However I thought about what happens when one of our editors looses his phone and cannot login anymore. I do not want to deactivate the whole plugin or add wp-config Variables to turn off TFA, I would rather want to reset TFA for one single user.

    I now hacked my way into a solution by removing the TFA entries in the usermeta table, allowing the user to login normally and re-configure TFA.

    This would be a perfect setting to include on user pages when logged in as an administrator and would be implemented in less than an hour.

    What do you think about it? It would probably also be a great solution for less code-heavy wordpress users.

    Hi,

    This is a feature of the Premium version of the plugin. To us, sites with multiple high-level users seemed like a decent place for a Premium feature. You can also use a plugin like “User Switching” to control another user’s settings.

    Can you provide instructions for how to disable another user’s 2FA? I have the premium version but don’t see an option for doing that.

    Great, jumping over there. Ive made the same request via the Simba support site.
