Removing 2FA Requirement

Users can remove their own 2FA requirement and site administrators can remove the 2FA requirement for any user account.

Removing 2FA Requirement as a User

If you need to remove a 2FA requirement from your own account, you do this from the My Account page. You will be asked to supply the authenticator code from one of your 2FA methods.

If your 2FA device/method isn't available, for example you have lost your Yubikey, then a site administrator will need to remove the 2FA requirement for your user account.

Removing User Account 2FA Requirement

A site administrator can remove all 2FA requirements from a user account by disabling the Require Two-factor authentication option for the account.
