two-factor authentication to WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the name, this plugin offers many more authentication methods than just the Google Authenticator app. In the free version, you can set up:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>SMS authentication (you get 10 free SMS messages, but after that you&#8217;ll need to pay)<\/li>\n<li>Google Authenticator app<\/li>\n<li>Scan QR code with miniOrange Authenticator app (similar to the now-defunct Clef method)<\/li>\n<li>Authy 2-Factor Authentication app<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I&#8217;ll show you how to set up SMS messages and Google Authenticator, but you should feel free to use whichever method you feel most comfortable with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To set up SMS authentication<\/strong>, go to the <strong>Setup Two-Factor<\/strong> tab and choose the <strong>OTP Over
