外掛說明
The Two-Factor plugin adds an extra layer of security to your WordPress login by requiring users to provide a second form of authentication in addition to their password. This helps protect against unauthorized access even if passwords are compromised.
設定說明
Important: Each user must individually configure their two-factor authentication settings.
個人使用者
- Navigate to your profile: Go to “Users” “Your Profile” in the WordPress admin
- Find Two-Factor Options: Scroll down to the “Two-Factor Options” section
- Choose your methods: Enable one or more authentication providers (noting a site admin may have hidden one or more so what is available could vary):
- Authenticator App (TOTP) – Use apps like Google Authenticator, Authy, or 1Password
- 透過電子郵件傳送驗證碼 – Receive one-time codes via email
- Backup Codes – Generate one-time backup codes for emergencies
- 測試模式 – For testing purposes only (requires WP_DEBUG)
- Configure each method: Follow the setup instructions for each enabled provider
- Set primary method: Choose which method to use as your default authentication
- Save changes: Click “Update Profile” to save your settings
網站管理員
- Plugin settings: The plugin provides a settings page under “Settings Two-Factor” to configure which providers should be disabled site-wide.
- User management: Administrators can configure 2FA for other users by editing their profiles
- Security recommendations: Encourage users to enable backup methods to prevent account lockouts
可用的驗證方法
驗證碼產生器 App (TOTP) – 建議使用

動作及篩選器
以下所列為這個外掛提供的動作及篩選器勾點:
two_factor_providers篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫如電子郵件及 TOTP 等兩步驟驗證方式。陣列值為兩步驟驗證方式的 PHP 類別名稱。two_factor_providers_for_user篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫已為特定使用者啟用的兩步驟驗證方式。陣列值的第一個引數是驗證方式類別的執行個體,第二個引數為使用者物件WP_User。two_factor_enabled_providers_for_user篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫已為使用者啟用的兩步驟驗證方式清單。第一個引數是已啟用的功能提供程式類別名稱值陣列,第二個引數為使用者 ID。two_factor_is_required_for_userfilter controls whether two-factor authentication is required for a user. Returnfalseto bypass the two-factor flow (e.g. for trusted IP addresses). First argument is a boolean (whether the user has a primary provider configured), the second argument is theWP_Userobject.two_factor_fallback_provider_for_userfilter overrides the provider forced on when none of a user’s stored two-factor providers are still registered (e.g. after a provider plugin is deactivated). Defaults toTwo_Factor_Email. First argument is the provider classname, the second is the user ID, the third is the array of provider classnames that were stored for the user but are no longer registered. The returned provider must be registered and available to the user (is_available_for_user()), or the user is shown an error instead of being let through with a fallback.two_factor_user_authenticated動作:這個動作會接收已登入的WP_User物件作為第一個引數,用於完成驗證工作流程後立即確定已登入的使用者。two_factor_user_api_login_enable篩選器:這個篩選器會限制 REST API 及 XML-RPC 僅能使用應用程式密碼,第二個引數為使用者 ID。two_factor_email_token_ttl篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫電子郵件權杖產生後的使用期限 (以秒為單位)。接受第一個引數為以秒為單位的時間間隔設定後,才能驗證WP_User物件的 ID。two_factor_email_token_length篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫電子郵件權杖預設為 8 個字元的設定。two_factor_backup_code_length篩選器:這個篩選器會覆寫備用代碼預設為 8 個字元的設定,提供與WP_User關聯的使用者作為第二個引數。two_factor_rest_api_can_edit_user篩選器:這個篩選器會使用 REST API 覆寫使用者的 Two-Factor 外掛設定。第一個引數是目前的$can_edit布林值,第二個引數為使用者 ID。two_factor_before_authentication_prompt動作:這個動作會接收提供者物件及並在驗證輸入表單顯示提示前觸發。two_factor_after_authentication_prompt動作:這個動作會接收提供者物件及並在驗證輸入表單顯示提示後觸發。two_factor_after_authentication_input動作:這個動作會接收提供者物件及並在驗證輸入表單輸入相關資料後觸發;如果表單中沒有任何輸入任何相關資料,這個動作會在two_factor_after_authentication_prompt後立即觸發。two_factor_login_backup_linksfilters the backup links displayed on the two-factor login form.two_factor_login_nonce_failedaction which fires when a login nonce fails verification. Provides the ID of the user the nonce was presented for as the first argument, and the reason as the second:no_nonce_stored,expired, ormismatch.two_factor_log_login_nonce_failuresfilter overrides whether a failed login nonce verification is written to the PHP error log. Defaults to true forexpiredandmismatch, and false forno_nonce_stored, which any unauthenticated request can reach. Provides the user ID as the second argument and the reason as the third.
WP-CLI Commands
The plugin includes a wp two-factor WP-CLI namespace for managing two-factor authentication from the command line. All commands accept a user by ID, login, or email.
wp two-factor status <user>— Shows a user’s current 2FA status (read-only). Supports--format=json.wp two-factor list-providers— Lists all registered two-factor providers.wp two-factor enable <user> <provider>— Enables a provider for a user. Providers that require a shared secret (like TOTP) can’t be enabled this way and will point you to the profile page instead.wp two-factor disable <user> [<provider>]— Disables a single provider, or performs a full reset of all 2FA for the user when no provider is given. Both forms prompt for confirmation unless--yesis passed.wp two-factor backup-codes generate <user> [--count=<n>]— Generates a fresh set of backup codes for a user, replacing any existing ones. Defaults to 10 codes.wp two-factor unlock <user>— Clears a user’s login rate-limit/throttle without changing their 2FA configuration.
Run wp help two-factor for the full list, or wp help two-factor <command> for options and examples for a specific command.
Redirect After the Two-Factor Challenge
To redirect users to a specific URL after completing the two-factor challenge, use WordPress Core built-in login_redirect filter. The filter works the same way as in a standard WordPress login flow:
add_filter( 'login_redirect', function( $redirect_to, $requested_redirect_to, $user ) {
return home_url( '/dashboard/' );
}, 10, 3 );

常見問題集
Two-Factor 外掛支援哪些 PHP 及 WordPress 版本?
這個外掛支援 WordPress 最新的 2 個主要版本及這些 WordPress 核心程式所支援的 PHP 最低版本需求。
如何針對程式碼錯誤進行意見反應或取得協助?
Two Factor 的 GitHub 待解問題頁面,是回報外掛程式碼錯誤、功能建議及任何 (非安全性相關) 意見反應的最佳集中地。在提交新問題前,請先搜尋現有待解問題中,是否已有其他人回報過類似的問題。
在何處可以回報安全性程式碼錯誤?
外掛參與者及 WordPress 社群對安全性程式碼錯誤一向嚴陣以待,我們非常感謝使用者披露相關發現所付出的心力,並會盡全力解決使用者提出的問題。
如需回報安全性問題,請參考 WordPress HackerOne 計畫。
What if I lose access to all my authentication methods?
If you have backup codes enabled, you can use one of those to regain access. If you don’t have backup codes or have used them all, you’ll need to contact your site administrator to reset your account. This is why it’s important to always enable backup codes and keep them in a secure location.
Can I use this plugin with WebAuthn?
The plugin previously supported FIDO U2F, which was a predecessor to WebAuthn. There is an open issue to add WebAuthn support here.
Is there a recommended way to use passkeys or hardware security keys with Two-Factor?
Yes. For passkeys and hardware security keys, you can install the Two-Factor Provider: WebAuthn plugin. It integrates directly with Two-Factor and adds WebAuthn-based authentication as an additional two-factor option for users.
Does this plugin work on WordPress Multisite?
Yes. The Two-Factor plugin is compatible with WordPress Multisite. Each user configures their own 2FA settings via their profile, and because authentication codes are stored in WordPress user meta, the configuration is tied to the user account and valid across all sites in the network. However, there are no network-wide settings — a super admin cannot enforce or configure 2FA globally from the Network Admin dashboard. To manage 2FA for a specific user, edit their profile on any site where they have an account.
How do I disable 2FA for a user who is locked out?
As an administrator, go to Users All Users in the WordPress admin, click Edit on the affected user’s profile, scroll down to the Two-Factor Options section, and uncheck all enabled methods, then click Update User. This will remove 2FA for that user, allowing them to log in with their password alone. You can also do this via WP-CLI with wp two-factor disable –yes, which performs a full reset (see the WP-CLI Commands section above). Once they’re back in, encourage them to re-enable 2FA and generate fresh backup codes.
Can I require 2FA for all users or specific roles?
Not through the plugin’s interface — there are no built-in enforcement settings. However, developers can use the
two_factor_providers_for_userfilter to control which providers are available per user or role, and combine it with custom logic to redirect users who haven’t set up 2FA. Native enforcement support is a known and tracked feature request — follow the discussion at GitHub issue #255.
