Title: 2 factor auth for the forum.
Post by: Monster Tent on March 17, 2013, 10:22:52 AM
Shouldnt this forum have 2 factor auth by now ? Given the amount of people who claim their forum accounts get compromised it would be a good idea.

please not! I just lost 100 TRC since I cannot figure how it works on cryptonit.net and wherever else, moreover I lack the right smartphone.

There is a chrome addon and plenty of other websites that will do it for your webbased.

Yes please! However, not sure if there is a mod or addon to do this for SMF...

Tried several. Unfortunately none worked.

I'm cool with 2FA; Google does it to where they send you a text with a code.  And there's also an app named Authy which gives you a code that you have to enter in 15 seconds (I think it's 15 seconds) or else it resets.

Not sure about the second one, but I'm fairly certain most people are okay with texts by now :P

It's open source, host your own. You're probably doing something wrong because lots of people use the chrome addon for sure.
