Logging in to access community forum

pwalk — Thu, 08 May 2025 19:15:15 GMT

When I want to post a reply to a topic, or even vote a reply as helpful, I have to log in to the Community with a pass code sent to my phone every single time. This 2-step verification is so cumbersome, I understand security concerns, but it's not like the forum is a super-sensitive place, so why don't EE at least provide an option to trust a device and skip verification, like many services do nowadays?

@pwalk : I login a lot here & I'm not sent a pass code to my phone every single time. I may have been sent 1 once when I set up 2FA as instructed but not since then.

It's common that you have to login to this forum if you were last active more than, say, 30 minutes ago.

But to need an OTP everytime is not usual.
