    Help! I can’t use my blog because of “2 step verification” since I don’t have a smart phone. What a nuisance! I don’t even have a cell phone (and I don’t want one). As an elder who still remembers my family’s first TV, a black and white model, please give me a break.
    Thanks, Paula

    What are you on about? I can access my blog. Two step authentication is not required. It’s recommended only to those who have mobiles. I don’t have or want a cell phone either.

    If you don’t enable two step authentication, it will not be in effect.

    I’m also getting rather tired of people relying on their age to be some kind of excuse. This is not sprinting. It isn’t weight lifting. It’s basically typing, on a platform designed for beginners. Every time you use your age as an excuse (im only 12 OR I am old enough to remember black and white tv) you encourage age discrimination. I assume you’ve been victimized by this if you’re visibly over 35 or under 18, so don’t feed that machine.

    I enabled the 2-step verification and now can not access wordpress settings or my blog. I’m told wordpress.com is private and needs permission to log on.

    Thoughts? I’m going to disable the 2-step verification as soon as I can.
