miniOrange 2-factor Authentication (2FA with SMS, Email, Google Authenticator)

Piyush provided the assistance I needed. the great support team for the free version is also... Very much appreciated!  5 stars are well deserved.

Great plugin with great support

Easy to use and Aswesome support


It's indeed a great plugin, with lot of options for many scenarios. 



One thing that it lacks is customization of the page of OTP, but you can modify /wp-content/plugins/miniorange-2-factor-authentication/controllers/twofa/mo2fa-common-login.php if you know what you're doing (it's just HTML to edit, nothing more).



The plugin have a good documentation and video tutorials, and, a nice thing, a support box right inside the plugin's page to contact support if you need anything.


Great plugin with nice funtionality
