Plugin notes
This plugin is a fork of the Two Factor Authentication plugin by David Nutbourne and David Anderson, original plugin by Oskar Hane.
This plugin requires PHP version 5.3 or higher and either php-openssl or
PHP mcrypt. The vast majority of PHP setups will have one of these. If not, ask your hosting company.
