2FA codes being auto-populated?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Our users are setup for 2FA. Recently, on login and prompt for 2FA, the 2FA field is auto-populated with a 2FA code. They don’t *seem* to be valid codes, but the code that is auto-populated *does* change in 30 second intervals in sync with the 3rd party app used for 2FA. Happens in Edge and Chrome. Anyone else experience this?

  • Hey!

    It looks like your site is not hosted here, on WordPress.com, so we can’t really advise. I’d suggest asking for help at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ instead. Folks there will have more experience working on self-hosted WordPress sites like yours.

    To clear up any further confusion, there is WordPress.com and WordPress.org, and they are two different entities.

    We, WordPress.com, are a cloud-based platform where we manage WordPress sites, whereas WordPress.org is stand-alone software that you can download and self-host with any other hosting.

    You can find more details about WordPress.com and WordPress.org on this page:

    I hope that helps :)
