I find it a bit strange, that you sell a product that support secure login, while your own Support Forum Software doesn’t allow to do so ?! Or did I overlook something ?

In case there is no OTP or other possibility, when will you change that ?

😕

I assume this would be subjected to the actual forum’s software to implement this feature.

It doesn’t seem to be in for the moment. Of course, it also seems that Discourse can be rigged up with some external authentication platform, which then may or may not enable U2F as a second factor - but it doesn’t seem that this instance was set up like this.

Further upstream discussion:

- [https://meta.discourse.org/t/76689](https://meta.discourse.org/t/76689) (general two factor implementation, completed)
- [https://meta.discourse.org/t/88543](https://meta.discourse.org/t/88543) (refers to “U2F” keys which I think means “FIDO U2F”, not yet implemented)

As I am currently making some test with NK FIDO U2F, and needed google authenicator for this forum ( instead of using FIDO) - I wonder if the status changed ?
