  I entered my default password, then it told me to add an application-specific password. Did that, but the screen just shook and said “Invalid Password.” What can I do?

  Hi there,
  Is this the guide you followed? http://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/

  Yes, I go to Google Accounts, and create a new application specific password. I also entered my account (WordPress) password, and used Google Authenticator app. Nothing. I saw another thread that someone said it was a bug they needed to take up with the developers, but I didn’t read it fully.

  What else? Any ideas?

  Why are you going to Google Accounts?

  You create your WordPress.com application specific password from https://wordpress.com/#!/settings/security/
