## Description

WordFence is a _pretty darn good_ WordPress plugin, but they recently added two-
factor authentication to the free version.

2FA support is **super awesome**, but not when there’s no option to turn it off.

Sure, you can just not use it, and for some people that’s 100% A-OKAY – but what
if you’re already using a 2FA plugin? Now you’re faced with conflicting user interfaces,
users are freaking out and clicking the “wrong 2FA button” and ain’t nobody got 
time for that.

This WordPress plugin removes all _visual_ traces of the WordFence 2FA feature from
everywhere bar the actual WordFence settings pages (it does however remove the submenu
item for “Login Security” under the WordFence admin menu item).

This plugin is unnecessary. WordFence activate 2FA option for Administrator users,
but it it is not activated in your user profile (default: disabled) it does not 
ask it on login… Check Login Security -> Settings Table, 2FA Active column.

Thank you for this plugin. It good to filter all the irrelevant stuff from our users,
they get confused so quickly. And even myself am relieved to see 2FA only where 
we use it.
