There's code for a PHP implementation here: https://github.com/PHPGangsta/GoogleAuthenticator/blob/master/PHPGangsta/GoogleAuthenticator.phpI see a few posts about people attempting to set up SMS gateways and such with SMF, but not much else. I have a couple SMF forums and one that is not being used right now, I'd be able to test an add-on if we needed to. EDIT: Also, they appear to have a mod request subforum. Wonder what would happen if someone offered to pay, say, a couple Bitcoins for one?

Please not a *bounty* - if this is going to be done the *choose* someone to do it and let them be the *sole* person doing it.
Having people "competing" for a bounty is something that we really don't need any more of (it leads to arguments and the lowest quality work - just look at how well the "bounties" have been working out for blockchain.info).
If theymos wants to do this then I will happily create a Project on CIYAM Open (for free) and manage the task (for free) to get it done properly.
Sure. I don't really care how it's administered, but think sponsoring it in any way would help and I'm sure the forum can spare a modest but attractive sum to get good implementations quickly.

You can practically copy paste code clips via Google search to make one.

Sounds real secure. Google Authenticator is secure. It's easy to code and practically unbreakable. Not much skill needed to make a script that runs it. Look into it.

Maybe, but the parts that actually integrate with the forum then become critical. Rock-solid GA is worthless if there's an oversight that allows it to be bypassed, for example. There is also some thought and careful logic that needs to go into en/disabling 2FA.

Integration also needs to be rock solid.

I agree, while this is easy to do, it's not necessarily "easy" when it comes to integrating it into existing code and making sure the mods all still work fine and etc.
It might almost need to be one of those things where you'd want a "special login page" and a table/db separate from SMF. Then have that table/db locked down and put in an exception for those with two-factor authentication where their password in SMF is a custom variable. If the login process detects the password field is this custom variable, it authenticates them via a "special login page". Additionally, you may want to handle the transfer process to the login page and back for the user as done via some really obscure seed based on variables pulled from the user's session like resolution, user-agent, and etc. just to make damn sure it's not vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack.
You'd then want the special login page audited by two different PHP/SQL security experts that keep abreast of the latest security issues and specifically on SQL injection attacks and XSS vulnerabilities.

Fancy authentication options should be provided via OpenID support. It doesn't seem easy to add OpenID support to SMF, though.
You should change forum software to Mybb(Free) or Probably Xenforo (Paid). Xenforo have 2factor authentication addon already and it's the best paid forum software currently.

There are "plans" (or just a dream?) to switch to another forum. I'd prefer to see 2FA in the forum today rather than adding it to the wishlist of stuff that will happen someday.

Please, I want this feature goddamnit. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I can't imagine what would happen if my account were compromised. This is about the last non-trivial site that I don't have 2FA on, and yet it has the most potential of causing damage to me and everyone. Agreed, this is too important of a feature not to be implemented, if certain people like yourself had your accounts compromised it would be a disaster.

The main thing about 2FA is how flawless it will be. It has to integrate with SMF. Don't suggest switching forums unless you can also provide an easy way to do so while transferring every existing thread. Such a transfer might not be easy

Well forum transfer is easy but not for big forums like this and it also depends on what you are going to use in future. Some forum software doesn't have converter for SMF so process is longer.
