13 Secure WordPress login with Two Factor Authentication - supports WP, Woo + other login forms, HOTP, TOTP (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.)
14
15 == Description ==
16
17 Secure WordPress login with this two factor authentication (TFA / 2FA) plugin. Users for whom it is enabled will require a one-time code in order to log in. From the authors of <a href="https://updraftplus.com/">UpdraftPlus - WP's #1 backup/restore plugin</a>, with over two million active installs.
18
19 Are you completely new to TFA? <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/two-factor-authentication/faq/">If so, please see our FAQ</a>.
20
21 Features (please see the "Screenshots" for more information):
22
23 * Supports standard TOTP + HOTP protocols (and so supports Google Authenticator, Authy, and many others).
24 * Displays graphical QR codes for easy scanning into apps on your phone/tablet
25 * TFA can be made available on a per-role basis (e.g. available for admins, but not for subscribers)
26 * TFA can be turned on or off by each user
27 * TFA can be required for specified user levels, after a defined time period (e.g. require all admins to have TFA, once their accounts are a week old) (<a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a>), including forcing them to immediately set up (by redirecting them to the page to do so)
28 * Supports front-end editing of settings, via [twofactor_user_settings] shortcode (i.e. users don't need access to the WP dashboard). (The <a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a> allows custom designing of any layout you wish).
29 * Site owners can allow "trusted devices" on which TFA codes are only asked for a chosen number of days (instead of every login); e.g. 30 days (<a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a>)
30 * Encrypt the TFA-generating secret keys using an on-disk encryption key, so that an attacker would need to break into both your WordPress database *and* your files in order to break TFA codes (as well as breaking a user's password in order to use them)
31 * Works together with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/theme-my-login/">"Theme My Login"</a> (both forms and widgets)
32 * Includes support for the WooCommerce and Affiliates-WP login forms
33 * Includes support for CozmosLabs Profile Builder
34 * Includes support for Elementor Pro login forms (Premium version)
35 * Includes support for bbPress login forms (Premium version)
36 * Includes support for login forms from the Gravity Forms User Registration add-on (Premium version)
37 * Includes support for any and every third-party login form (Premium version) without any further coding needed via appending your TFA code to the end of your password
38 * Does not mention or request second factor until the user has been identified as one with TFA enabled (i.e. nothing is shown to users who do not have it enabled)
39 * WP Multisite compatible (plugin should be network activated)
40 * Simplified user interface and code base for ease of use and performance
41 * Added a number of extra security checks to the original forked code
42 * Alert users if someone appears to have found out their password, as indicated by successfully entering a password but repeatedly entering an incorrect TFA code.
43 * Emergency codes for when you lose your phone/tablet (<a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a>)
44 * When using the front-end shortcode (<a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a>), require the user to enter the current TFA code correctly to be able to activate TFA
45 * Works together with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-members/">"WP Members"</a> (shortcode form)
46 * Administrators can access other users' codes, and turn them on/off when needed (<a href="https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/two-factor-authentication/">Premium version</a>)

48 = Why use TFA / 2FA ? =
49
50 Read this! <a href="https://www.wired.com/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/">https://www.wired.com/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/</a>
51
52 = How Does TFA / 2FA Work? =
53
54 This plugin uses the industry standard TFA / 2FA algorithm [TOTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-time_Password_Algorithm) or [HOTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC-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.
55
56 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.
57
58 = Plugin Notes =
59
60 This plugin began life in early 2015 as a friendly fork and enhancement of <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/two-factor-auth/">Oscar Hane's "two factor auth" plugin</a>.
61
62 == Installation ==
63
64 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.
65
66 1. Search for 'Two Factor Authentication' in the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
67 2. Click the 'Install' button. (Make sure you picks the right one)
68 3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
69 4. Find site-wide settings in Settings -> Two Factor Authentication ; find your own user settings in the top-level menu entry "Two Factor Auth".
70
71 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: [twofactor_user_settings]
72
73 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
74
75 = What is two factor authentication (TFA / 2FA) ? =
76
77 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.
78
79 By default, your WordPress accounts are protected by only one thing: your password. If that's broken, then everything's wide open.
80
81 "Two factor" 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. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_factor_authentication">You can get a longer answer from Wikipedia.</a>
82
83 Sometimes it is also called multi-factor authentication instead of two-factor - because someone could secure their systems with as many factors as they like.
84
85 = Why should I care? =
86
87 Read this: <a href="https://www.wired.com/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/">https://www.wired.com/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/</a>
88
89 = How does two factor authentication (TFA / 2FA) work? =
90
91 Since "two factor authentication" 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 SMS; 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).
92
93 = What do I need to set up on my phone/tablet (etc.) in order to generate the codes? =
94
95 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 - <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1066447"> follow this link, and ignore the first paragraph that is talking about 2FA on your Google account</a> (rather than being relevant to this plugin).
96
97 = What if I do not have a phone or tablet? =
98
99 Many and various devices and programs can generate the codes. One option is an add-on for your web browser; for example, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/authenticator">here are some apps and add-ons for Google Chrome</a>. Wikipedia <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-time_Password_Algorithm#Client_implementations">lists various programs for different computers</a>.
100
101 = I lost my device that has pass-codes - or, they don't work. What to do? =
102
103 If your pass-code used to work, but no longer does, then check that the time on your device that generates them is accurate.
104
105 If you cannot get in and need to disable two-factor authentication, then add this to your wp-config.php file, using FTP or the file manager in your hosting control panel:
106
107 <code>define('TWO_FACTOR_DISABLE', true);</code>
108
109 Add it next to where any other line beginning with "define" is.
110
111 Alternatively, if you have FTP or cPanel access to your web hosting space, you can de-activate the plugin; <a href="https://updraftplus.com/understanding-wordpress-installs-plugins/">see this article.</a>
112
113 = Why does the plugin not support sending the two-factor code by email? =
114
115 If someone has access to your email account, then they can send a password-reset code there using the password-reset mechanisms built into WordPress. Therefore, if the two-factor code was also sent there, then ability to read your email allows the breaking of both factors, and hence is no longer truly *two* factor authentication.
116
117 Some users might have two factor authentication on their email account, but this is not knowable or controllable from inside WordPress, and so giving this option to users means that the administrator cannot see or enforce two-factor authentication. And even in this case, email is often sent between servers unencrypted, and so is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks beyond the control of WordPress.
118
119 = What are HOTP and TOTP? =
120
121 These are the names of the two mathematical algorithms that are used to create the special codes. These are industry-standard algorithms, devised by expert cryptographers. HOTP is less popular, but the device that generates the codes does not need to know the correct time (instead, the codes are generated in a precise sequence). TOTP is much more popular, and generates codes that are only valid for 30 seconds (and so your device needs to know the time). I'd recommend TOTP, as HOTP can be annoying if something causes the sequences to get out of sync.
122
123 = What is the shortcode to use for front-end settings? =
124
125 [twofactor_user_settings]
126
127 = I deliberately entered a wrong password, and it let me login! =
128
129 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.
130
131 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.

342
343 * TWEAK: When checking if a user has TFA enabled on a login page, perform the same sanitisation on the username as WP core, so that if the user mis-types their username (which WP accepts) e.g. by prefixing a space, then they will still be asked for their TFA code (instead of jumping straight to an error for not supplying one)
344 * TRANSLATIONS: Added an Italian translation, thanks to Edoardo Di Leginio

353 * TWEAK: Replace the deprecated jQuery.click() and .change() methods
354
355 = 1.8.8 - 16/Jan/2021 =
356
357 * TWEAK: Replace the deprecated jQuery.unbind() and .focus() methods
358 * TWEAK: If the free version is active, then throw an error if trying to activate the Premium version, explaining what needs to be done
359
360 = 1.8.7 - 11/Jan/2021 =
361
362 * TWEAK: Update jQuery document ready, click and submit styles to one not deprecated in jQuery 3.0, and replace :first pseudo-selector with .first()
363 * TWEAK: Now marked as supporting PHP 5.6+ (now that PHP 8.0 is out)
364 * TWEAK: Update to the latest version of the bundled updater library (paid versions), which adds integration with WP 5.5+'s auto-updater
365
366 = 1.8.6 - 15/Sep/2020 =
367
368 * FEATURE: Add a 'TFA' column also to the Users screen in the WP network admin dashboard (multisite installs)
369 * TWEAK: Update the bundled updater library (paid versions) to the current release
370
371 = 1.8.5 - 29/Aug/2020 =
372
373 * TWEAK: Fix the "for" attribute of the "trusted" text label on the WooCommerce login form
374 * TWEAK: If a website's wp-login.php is available under multiple hosts without CORS enabled between them, then AJAX calls would fail; this is now resolved by using a relative URL instead
375 * TWEAK: Update bundled updater libraries on Premium version (improving compatibility with WP 5.5+'s update settings)
376
377 = 1.8.4 - 26/May/2020 =
378
379 * TWEAK: Updare .pot file; now both the first two parameters to _n() are also included in the aggregation process
380
381 = 1.8.2 - 23/May/2020 =
382
383 * FIX: If the site owner was requiring a correct code to be supplied for activation, then this was also being required for de-activation
384 * TWEAK: Introduce simbatfa_enforce_require_after_check filter, allowing developers to selectively disable the "require TFA after X days" check
385 * TWEAK: Update .pot file
386
387 = 1.8.0 - 18/Apr/2020 =
388
389 * FEATURE: Add support in the paid version for Elementor login forms
390 * TWEAK: Updater in paid version now will make checks on availability without needing login
391 * TWEAK: Update updater class to current release
392
393 = 1.7.4 - 19/Mar/2020 =
394
395 * TWEAK: Adjust how the trusted field is referenced from JavaScript, fixing IE11 compatibility
396 * TWEAK: Introduce the filter simba_tfa_required_for_user
397
398 = 1.7.3 - 03/Mar/2020 =
399
400 * TWEAK: Provide non-plural alternative for trusted device phrase
401 * TWEAK: Mark as supporting WP 5.4
402
403 = 1.7.2 - 13/Feb/2020 =
404
405 * TWEAK: Update message about what to do with translations
406
407 = 1.7.1 - 14/Jan/2020 =
408
409 * FIX: Missing file in 1.7.0 (free) release
410
411 = 1.7.0 - 14/Jan/2020 =
412
413 * FEATURE: (Premium version): Add an optional TFA section to the WooCommerce account details section in "My Account"
414 * TWEAK: Fix div tag balancing issue in settings output
415 * TWEAK: Update WooCommerce integration to adjust to DOM changes in WooCommerce 3.8
416 * TWEAK: Update .pot file
417
418 = 1.6.4 - 12/Nov/2019 =
419
420 * TWEAK: On wp-login.php on WordPress 5.3, the password field was not hiding when the TFA field opened
421 * TWEAK: Update .pot file
422 * TWEAK: Add data-lpignore attribute to TFA field to indicate to LastPass that it is not a password field
423
424 = 1.6.3 - 18/Oct/2019 =
425
426 * FIX: The 'trusted users' option display in the settings defaulted to showing as enabled, whereas in fact the default setting is disabled
427 * TWEAK: Mark as compatible with WP 5.3
428
429 = 1.6.2 - 11/Sep/2019 =
430
431 * FIX: On multisites, administration of site users who were not present on the main site was not possible
432 * TWEAK: Introduce the WP action simba_tfa_activation_status_saved to allow developers to respond to activation status changes
433 * TWEAK: Update updater class to 1.8 series
434
435 = 1.6.1 - 10/Aug/2019 =
436
437 * TWEAK: Response to an attempt to turn TFA on can now include an "error" attribute if the attempt failed due to failure to supply the current code
438
439 = 1.6.0 - 08/Aug/2019 =
440
441 * FEATURE: (Premium version) By using the parameter style="require_current" with the shortcode twofactor_user_settings_enabled, the user will only be able to activate TFA if they enter the current TFA code
442 * TWEAK: Remove the incorrect suffix "(Premium)" (double-suffix in the actual Premium version) that appeared in the plugin title in 1.5.6
443
444 = 1.5.6 - 06/Aug/2019 =
445
446 * TWEAK: Allow customisation of a particular message via a filter simbatfa_message_you_should_verify
447 * TWEAK: Replace "eachother" with "each other"
448
449 = 1.5.5 - 30/Jul/2019 =
450
451 * TWEAK: Force a global context when creating the initial Simba_Two_Factor_Authentication object, to work around direct accesses from components that do not set the scope correctly
452
453 = 1.5.4 - 17/Jul/2019 =
454
455 * FEATURE: (Premium version) - allow the site administrator to forbid users who have compulsory TFA to turn it off (supplementing the additional capability to prevent them logging in)
456
457 = 1.5.3 - 22/Jun/2019 =
458
459 * TWEAK: When using your final emergency code (Premium version), and viewing your settings (which regenerated new ones), then if you did not follow the advice to reset your prviate key, you would get the same codes as before. This might be thought undesirable (though is not a security flaw, as the emergency codes are no more guessable the second time around than the first). This behaviour has now been changed.
460
461 = 1.5.2 - 08/Jun/2019 =
462
463 * TWEAK: When php-mcrypt was not installed, pressing the "Reset private key" link in a user's settings would cause an unnecessary PHP notice, and display a wrong "current code" for a few seconds.
464
465 = 1.5.1 - 05/May/2019 =
466
467 * FEATURE: Support any login form (Premium version) via appending the TFA code onto the end of the password. This allows support even of login forms coded in a way that make integrations (that aren't hacks or inordinate amounts of work-around code) impossible (e.g. PeepSo)
468 * TWEAK: Minor wording tweak in the explanation of how TOTP works.
469
470 = 1.4.12 - 18/Apr/2019 =
471
472 * TWEAK: Add a filter simba_tfa_localisation_strings allowing further customisation of front-end strings
473 * TWEAK: Add an extra instructional message in the "Make two factor authentication compulsory" section (Premium) to explain how to cope with existing users
474 * TWEAK: Cope with the user entering spaces in their two-factor code (TOTP protocol codes are numbers only, but some apps apparently display formatting and users are not aware)
475 * TWEAK: Mark as supporting WP 5.2
476
477 = 1.4.11 - 08/Mar/2019 =
478
479 * FIX: On multisites, the user search should search on all sites, not just the main one
480
481 = 1.4.10 - 01/Mar/2019 =
482
483 * TWEAK: Introduce a filter, simba_tfa_management_capability, allowing the WP capability (default: manage_options) required by a user to manage the plugin to be changed. (Be careful - giving the ability to manage could potentially mean the ability to lock any user out).
484
485 = 1.4.9 - 20/Feb/2019 =
486
487 * SECURITY: The security fix in version 1.4.7 was faulty and failed to completely fix the problem; it is now resolved in this release. Our apologies for the double update.
488
489 = 1.4.8 - 16/Feb/2019 =
490
491 * FIX: On some multisite setups, the link to the site-wide administration settings went to the wrong place
492
493 = 1.4.7 - 06/Feb/2019 =
494
495 * SECURITY: If a user's WordPress account username was in the form of an email address, and if their actual account email address was something different, and TFA was set up on that account, and used the "username" (that looked like an email address) to login, then TFA controls upon login on that account would be ineffective. Other accounts were not affected (regardless of whether you login by email or not). This vulnerability was inherited from the original "Two Factor Auth" plugin that this plugin was forked from, and so is present in all versions before this one.
496
497 = 1.4.6 - 05/Feb/2019 =
498
499 * FIX: When displaying a user's trusted devices in the admin page, the time that a device was trusted until was not shown correctly (instead, it showed the current time)
500 * FIX: Removing the first trusted device in a list did not always work
501 * TWEAK: Display "(none)" when there are no trusted devices
502
503 = 1.4.4 - 04/Feb/2019 =
504
505 * FEATURE: Trusted devices are now listed in the user's admin page, allowing them to see and remove trust from their devices.
506 * TWEAK: Updated .pot file
507
508 = 1.4.3 - 28/Jan/2019 =
509
510 * FIX: The "Trusted devices" functionality (Premium) checkbox was not appearing when activated
511 * TWEAK: Add a missing translation domain to a phrase
512
513 = 1.4.1 - 25/Jan/2019 =
514
515 * FEATURE: Trusted devices: A site owner can now choose to allow particular user levels (e.g. admins, editors) to mark devices as 'trusted' and thereby exempt from needing to enter a TFA code for a chosen number of days. This feature is off by default and requires https (i.e. SSL) on the login form and cookies to be kept in the trusted device.
516 * FIX: Fix a regression in 1.4.0 whereby when a site owner viewed another user's current code, it could later self-update with the wrong user's value
517 * TWEAK: Add the robustness in parsing broken JSON present on the standard WP login form to other login forms
518 * TWEAK: Various internal code documentation improvements
519 * TWEAK: Suppress mcrypt deprecation notices in places where we would use an alternative if it was not present
520 * TWEAK: Bumped the support requirement up to WP 3.4. I'm not aware of anything done to break it on 3.3, but this is the official requirement (it's very hard to test old WP versions as they don't run on modern webserver stacks)
521
522 = 1.4.0 - 24/Jan/2019 =
523
524 * FEATURE: Where the current OTP code is displayed (during setup), this will now self-update automatically (i.e. without needing a manual press on the "update" link).
525 * TWEAK: Various improvements to the layout and text of the setup page to help make the process more understandable
526 * TWEAK: The current code is shown next to the UI option for enabling TFA
527 * TWEAK: Prevent a PHP notice if AUTH_KEY was not defined (on some very old WP installs)
528
529 = 1.3.13 - 18/Dec/2018 =
530
531 * SECURITY: Fix a logged-in CSRF vulnerability reported by Martijn Korse (www.bitnesswise.com). Due to a missing nonce check, if an attacker was able to persuade a personally-targetted victim who was currently logged in to their WordPress account to visit a personally-crafted (for the individual victim) page in the same browser session, then the attacker would be able to de-activate two-factor authentication for the victim on that WordPress site (thus leaving the targetted account protected by the user's password, but not by a second factor - the absence of a request for a TFA code would be apparent on the user's next login). This vulnerability was inherited from the original "Two Factor Auth" plugin that this plugin was forked from, and so is present in all versions before this one.
532 * TWEAK: Some minor code-tidying
533 * TWEAK: Update bundled Premium updater library to current version (1.5.10)
534
535 = 1.3.12 - 14/Dec/2018 =
536
537 * TWEAK: Prevent a PHP debugging notice when $pagenow is not set
538
539 = 1.3.11 - 04/Dec/2018 =
540
541 * FEATURE: Add a 'TFA' column on the Users screen in the WP admin dashboard to display TFA status, thanks to Enrico Sorcinelli.
542
543 = 1.3.10 - 30/Nov/2018 =
544
545 * FIX: TFA codes were not being requested on the login form on a WooCommerce dedicated order payment page (i.e. /checkout/order-pay/123456/?pay_for_order=true&key=wc_order_blahblahblah) (meaning that if a user had TFA activated, login would fail).
546 * TWEAK: Prevent a PHP notice if AUTH_SALT was not defined (on some very old WP installs)
547
548 = 1.3.9 - 30/Oct/2018 =
549
550 * SECURITY: If you were not using the recommended option of requiring 2FA for XMLRPC requests, then an attacker could potentially also bypass requirements for 2FA on ordinary logins (i.e. only need the password). Such users will want to immediately update, though we recommend that all users do. This vulnerability was inherited from the original "Two Factor Auth" plugin that this plugin was forked from, and so is present in all versions before this one.
551
552 = 1.3.8 - 25/Oct/2018 =
553
554 * TWEAK: Update the updater class in the Premium version to the current release (1.5.6)
555
556 = 1.3.7 - 15/Oct/2018 =
557
558 * TWEAK: Try to mitigate plugins on the login page which cause JavaScript exceptions by enqueing our scripts earlier.
559
560 = 1.3.6 - 04/Oct/2018 =
561
562 * TWEAK: Add attribute autocomplete="off" on the WooCommerce login form TFA field (was already present for regular WP login form)
563 * TRANSLATION: Added Portuguese (Brazilian) translation, courtesy of Dino Marchiori
564
565 = 1.3.5 - 02/Oct/2018 =
566
567 * TWEAK: Some code-styling consistency clean-ups
568 * TWEAK: Allow one more window's tolerance by default for codes from devices running fast
569
570 = 1.3.4 - 11/Sep/2018 =
571
572 * FIX: Sometimes a TML widget login form could fail to work because of a changed/unexpected DOM tree
573 * FIX: Some further breakage in TML had occurred, causing login buttons to require to be pressed twice
574
575 = 1.3.3 - 31/Jul/2018 =
576
577 * FIX: Restore support for "Theme My Login", which had been broken by unannounced changes in TML 7.x
578 * TRANSLATIONS: Update .pot file
579
580 = 1.3.2 - 31/May/2018 =
581
582 * TWEAK: Add the simbatfa_check_tfa_requirements_ajax_response and simbatfa_verify_code_and_user_result filters to allow over-riding of the response to the "TFA required?" question and the TFA check itself by developers
583
584 = 1.3.1 - 25/May/2018 =
585
586 * FIX: The WooCommerce 3.3+ login form was requiring two clicks on the 'Log In' button
587 * TWEAK: The progress spinner had disappeared on WooCommerce 3.3+
588
589 = 1.3.0 - 05/Apr/2018 =
590
591 * FEATURE: (Premium version) Integration with the WP-Members login form, https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-members/ . N.B. WP-Members does not pass on the real error message upon a login failure, but displays its own hard-coded message that the username/password were wrong; so you'll see this even if it was really the TFA code that was wrong.
592 * TWEAK: Change the permission check for editing other users (Premium version) to edit_users (instead of the previous update_plugins, intended just as a proxy for "is an admin")
593 * TWEAK: Stop using the deprecated jQuery.parseJSON method
594 * TWEAK: Change a string that was not in a translatable form
595 * TWEAK: Update the updater class in the Premium version to the current release (1.5.1)
596
597 = 1.2.35 - 28/Nov/2017 =
598
599 * TWEAK: Upon front-end settings save, do jQuery(document).trigger('tfa_settings_saved'), allowing the user to respond to the action (e.g. reload page)
600 * TWEAK: Suppress mcrypt deprecation notices on PHP 7.1 (we already know it is deprecated, and already use openssl if it is not installed)
601
602 = 1.2.34 - 08/Nov/2017 =
603
604 * TWEAK: Remove calls to the deprecated screen_icon() function
605 * TWEAK: Remove some unnecessary bundled translation files
606 * TWEAK: Add some translation files not previously included in the Premium version
607 * TWEAK: Update bundled Premium updater library to current (1.5.0)
608
609 = 1.2.33 - 09/Oct/2017 =
610
611 * FIX: The available/required settings for super-admins on multisite installs were not saving (Premium feature)
612 * FIX: When the admin fetched another user's current QR code, it embedded the wrong username (which was a cosmetic issue only - the code itself was correct) (Premium feature)
613
614 = 1.2.32 - 06/Oct/2017 =
615
616 * TWEAK: Update bundled updater in Premium to latest version (1.4.8)
617
618 = 1.2.31 - 05/Oct/2017 =
619
620 * FEATURE: (Relevant to Premium version): Automatically generate new emergency codes when they run out, including upon view of settings if there are none (e.g. on upgrade from free to Premium)
621 * TWEAK: Code-styling consistency tweaks
622
623 = 1.2.30 - 18/Sep/2017 =
624
625 * FIX: TML shortcode forms were not working properly for non-TFA users
626
627 = 1.2.29 - 16/Sep/2017 =
628
629 * FIX: Prevent double-show of TFA field on TML default login page (regression)
630 * FIX: Restore functionality on TML shortcode forms (regression, likely due to changes in TML)
631 * TWEAK: Restore the spinner to proper size on all forms
632 * TWEAK: A few very minor code style clean-ups
633
634 = 1.2.27 - 29/Aug/2017 =
635
636 * TWEAK: Add the new 'PHP Requires' header to readme.txt
637 * TWEAK: Correct a couple of wrong translation domain references
638
639 = 1.2.26 - 08/Aug/2017 =
640
641 * FIX: Do not request TFA code on TML reset password form (regression, likely due to changes in TML)
642 * APOLOGIES: 1.2.25 was a faulty release that would block logins. You should immediately update.
643
644 = 1.2.24 - 05/Aug/2017 =
645
646 * TWEAK: Update to the latest version of the updater library (Premium)
647
648 = 1.2.23 - 15/Jun/2017 =
649
650 * TWEAK: Allow admins to reset users' private keys (Premium)
651
652 = 1.2.22 - 23/May/2017 =
653
654 * TWEAK: Update updater library to current version (Premium)
655 * TWEAK: Use higher-quality spinner image
656 * COMPATIBILITY: Mark as compatible with WP 4.8
657
658 = 1.2.21 - 22/Feb/2017 =
659
660 * TWEAK: Update jquery-qrcode library to latest release (0.14.0)
661 * TWEAK: Explicitly encode spaces in WordPress usernames (apparently resolves a problem with a particular iPhone app)
662
663 = 1.2.20 - 17/Feb/2017 =
664
665 * TWEAK: Work around a bug seen with strlen() on one particular PHP install
666 * FIX: The line purporting to show the current UTC time was in fact taking your WordPress timezone into account. It has now been adjusted to show both to avoid ambiguity.
667 * FIX: 1.2.18 used a PHP 5.4+ only function, whereas we support PHP 5.3+
668
669 = 1.2.17 - 09/Feb/2017 =
670
671 * FIX: Fix support for login widgets from Theme My Login
672
673 = 1.2.16 - 30/Jan/2016 =
674
675 * FIX: Fix issue whereby if you were already logged in and managed to visit a login form, you would not be asked for a TFA code
676
677 = 1.2.15 - 23/Jan/2017 =
678
679 * FEATURE: Add support for login widgets from Theme My Login
680 * UPDATER: (Premium version): update to the latest updater class, including the new ability to automatically update
681
682 = 1.2.14 - 02/Jan/2017 =
683
684 * TWEAK: Add missing internationalisation headers to the main plugin file
685
686 = 1.2.13 - 31/Aug/2016 =
687
688 * TWEAK: Internationalisation implementation was not previously compatible with wordpress.org's translation system
689
690 = 1.2.12 - 20/May/2016 =
691
692 * FEATURE: Compatibility with https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-administrator-password/ - when TFA is enabled on an account, the TFA credentials of the user whose password was supplied are allowed (and required)
693
694 = 1.2.11 - 18/May/2016 =
695
696 * TWEAK: Update bundled select2 to version 4.0.2
697 * FIX: If the [twofactor_user_qrcode] shortcode (Premium version) was used without other short-codes, then the code would not display
698
699 = 1.2.10 - 31/Mar/2016 =
700
701 * TWEAK: Prefer openssl, if present, to the deprecated mcrypt. Note that if you migrate a site from a server without openssl to a server without mcrypt, then because of mcrypt's non-compliant padding, you will need to either install php-mcrypt on the new server, or disable TFA (via define('TWO_FACTOR_DISABLE', true); in your wp-config.php) to allow users to be able to log in. This also applies if the source site did have openssl, but for users who hadn't logged in since installing this update.
702 * TWEAK: Make the $simba_two_factor_authentication_premium object globally available
703 * COMPATIBILITY: Mark as tested on WP 4.5
704
705 = 1.2.8 - 12/Dec/2015 =
706
707 * FEATURE: Add support for the Affiliates-WP login form
708 * TWEAK: Defeat WooCommerce loading an old version of the select2 script onto the TFA settings page, and breaking the user selector (should work this time)
709
710 = 1.2.6 - 11/Nov/2015 =
711
712 * TWEAK: Defeat WooCommerce loading an old version of the select2 script onto the TFA settings page, and breaking the user selector
713 * TWEAK: Tested on WordPress 4.4
714 * TWEAK: Use h1 for heading style on admin page, not h2
715 * FIX: The "You'll need to use TFA to login in future" link for users for whom TFA is compulsory (Premium) was to the wrong page
716
717 = 1.2.4 - 09/Nov/2015 =
718
719 * TWEAK: Make window settings filterable
720
721 = 1.2.3 - 19/Oct/2015 =
722
723 * FIX: Fix bug in 1.2.2 that could lock out users without TFA settings
724
725 = 1.2.2 - 16/Oct/2015 =
726
727 * TWEAK: Display dashboard notice if TWO_FACTOR_DISABLE is defined in wp-config.php, to prevent time wasted wondering why nothing is happening
728
729 = 1.2.1 - 08/Oct/2015 =
730
731 * FEATURE: (Premium version) - Require users (of configured roles) to use TFA (optionally after a configurable amount of time)
732
733 = 1.1.21 - 25/Aug/2015 =
734
735 * TRANSLATIONS: Translation files can now be used (translators welcome!)
736 * TRANSLATION: Swedish translation added, courtesy of Bo Sving
737
738 = 1.1.19 - 20/Aug/2015 =
739
740 * TWEAK: Remove a pointless nonce check
741
742 = 1.1.18 - 01/Aug/2015 =

809 * TWEAK: Premium version now contains support link to the proper place (not to wordpress.org's free forum)
810 * TWEAK: Added a constant, TWO_FACTOR_DISABLE. Define this in your wp-config.php to disable all TFA requirements.

827 * Tested + compatible on upcoming WP 4.2 (tested on Beta 3)
828 * Re-add option to require 2FA over XMLRPC (without specific code, XMLRPC clients don't/can't use 2FA - but requiring it effectively blocks hackers who want to crack your password by using this weakness in XMLRPC)

831
832 * First version, forked from Oskar Hane's https://wordpress.org/plugins/two-factor-auth/
833 * Support for email "two-factor" removed (email isn't really a second factor, unless you have multiple email accounts and guard where your "lost login" emails go to)
