QR code & Written Code, Both Serving Up As Invalid

  • It’s entirely possible the following is attributable to user error…

    I’ve installed WP-2FA.
    I’ve downloaded Google Authenticator for iOS.
    I navigate to Configure WP-2FA setup page.
    I receive ‘Invalid’ when scanning the QR code.
    I receive ‘Invalid’ when entering in the written code.

    Should I be scanning my own unique code equivalents for the codes found on Configure WP-2FA setup page? If yes, I do not see a location within my WP Admin Backend where such codes might be found.

    Your attention and insights are appreciated.

    OP Follow-up:
    This was totally my own misunderstanding of how to utilize the plugin based upon the written documentation.

    Solution (for anyone who finds themselves in similar situations):
    Use the plugin to generate the WP-2FA frontend page.
    QR codes will be generated by your website.
    QR codes will be presented to Users during WP-2FA setup of their account.
