    I have 2FA on all my sites, today I had a problem logging in one of them. The Authorization code never arrived. I had to de-activate Solid Security, log in the old way, do my work, re-activate Solid Security and log out. That works, but it is rather bothersome.

    1- How can I fix this?
    2- I have to have email confirmation. How do I change the email address the confirmation is sent to?

    Thanks for any advice,

    Jos

  • Hi @josflachs,

    Did you also check your spam folder? Also check for any errors:

    a. In the Security > Logs page. Under Screen Options tick Show Debug/Process entries. and click on the Apply button. Then filter for Notification Center module log entries. You should be able to see Type:Debug Description:Sending Two-Factor Email entries. If there are any problems sending the 2FA email from WordPress, additional error log entries should be visible. That said, usually the cause for emails not arriving lies outside WordPress. The SolSec plugin uses the WordPress Core wp_mail() function to send emails.

    b. In the Security menu in the Admin Bar.

    c. In Security > Settings > Notifications.

    The 2FA Email provider sends the Login Authentication Code email to the user’s WordPress email address. So you would have to change the email address for that user in the WordPress user profile (Users > Profile).
