To disable two-factor authentication for specific users in Laravel Fortify, you can follow these steps:
1. Disable Two-Factor Authentication for a User:
You can disable two-factor authentication for a specific user by deleting the `two_factor_secret` and `two_factor_recovery_codes` columns from the user's record in the database.
php
use App\Models\User;
$user = User::find($userId);
$user->two_factor_secret = null;
$user->two_factor_recovery_codes = null;
$user->save();
This will effectively disable two-factor authentication for that user.
2. Exclude Users from Two-Factor Authentication:
Alternatively, you can exclude specific users from the two-factor authentication requirement by modifying the `twoFactorAuthentication` method in your `FortifyServiceProvider`:
php
use Laravel\Fortify\Fortify;
public function boot()
{
Fortify::twoFactorAuthentication(function ($request, $user) {
// Exclude specific users from two-factor authentication
if ($user->email === '
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
var prefix = 'mailto:';
var suffix = '';
var attribs = '';
var path = 'hr' + 'ef' + '=';
var addy78225 = 'excluded-user' + '@';
addy78225 = addy78225 + 'example' + '.' + 'com';
document.write( '<a ' + path + '\'' + prefix + addy78225 + suffix + '\'' + attribs + '>' );
document.write( addy78225 );
document.write( '<\/a>' );
//-->
</script><script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
document.write( '<span style=\'display: none;\'>' );
//-->
</script>This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
document.write( '</' );
document.write( 'span>' );
//-->
</script>') {
return false;
}
return true;
});
}
In this example, the user with the email `
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
` will be excluded from the two-factor authentication requirement.
3. Disable Two-Factor Authentication Globally:
If you want to disable two-factor authentication for all users, you can remove the `twoFactorAuthentication` method call from your `FortifyServiceProvider`:
php
use Laravel\Fortify\Fortify;
public function boot()
{
// Remove the twoFactorAuthentication method call to disable two-factor authentication globally
}
This will effectively disable two-factor authentication for all users in your application.
Remember that disabling two-factor authentication can have security implications, so it's important to carefully consider the impact and ensure that your application still maintains a strong security posture.
