I have recently enabled the Wordfence Two-Factor Authentication for Administrator on my site and was unable to log in. Could this somehow be related to UsersWP?

WordFence has instructions on their site, to rename the plugin folder via FTP if it locks you out.

I cannot think of how that would be related to UsersWP.

Please always make your own topics.

Thanks

Hi Alex,

Yes, I was able to get back in. Reason I posted on the other thread was because the user was asking if there were any issues with using Wordfence and wanted to share my experience with him.

I will be doing some more tests with the 2FA option and report my findings here.

Kind regards,
