Disabling MFA

Post by fredooweb » Sun Apr 14, 2024 2:51 pm

Hello,

I have disabled MFA plugins on front-end but the Passkey icon remains on the login module.
Can you help me ?

Thanks in advance

You seem to have disabled the wrong plugins. I would keep and use MFA.

Passwordless Login is not a multifactor authentication that follows the standard login. It's an alternative to the standard, traditional username/password login.

Disable the plugin called "System - Passkey (Passwordless) Login" and that will remove both the Passkey and WebAuthn buttons from the Adminstrator login form. I assume it would do so for the front-end login form (component or module) as well.

You assume right :-)

However, strange to disable for front and back-end.

Thanks for your help :-)
