To exclude certain users from two-factor authentication (2FA) in Laravel Fortify, you can modify the `User` model by adding a custom method that checks if the user should be exempt from 2FA.
Here's an example of how you can do this:
1. Add a `shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication` method to your `User` model:
php
use Laravel\Fortify\TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use TwoFactorAuthenticatable;
/**
* Determine if the user should be exempt from two-factor authentication.
*
* @return bool
*/
public function shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication(): bool
{
// Check if the user should be exempt from 2FA
if ($this->email === '
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
var prefix = 'mailto:';
var suffix = '';
var attribs = '';
var path = 'hr' + 'ef' + '=';
var addy84599 = 'exempt-user' + '@';
addy84599 = addy84599 + 'example' + '.' + 'com';
document.write( '<a ' + path + '\'' + prefix + addy84599 + suffix + '\'' + attribs + '>' );
document.write( addy84599 );
document.write( '<\/a>' );
//-->
</script><script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
document.write( '<span style=\'display: none;\'>' );
//-->
</script>This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
document.write( '</' );
document.write( 'span>' );
//-->
</script>') {
return false;
}
return true;
}
}
In this example, the `shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication` method checks if the user's email is `'
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
'`. If it is, the method returns `false`, indicating that the user should be exempt from 2FA. You can modify the logic in this method to fit your specific requirements.
2. Update the `twoFactorAuthentication` method in your `FortifyServiceProvider`:
php
use Laravel\Fortify\Fortify;
public function boot()
{
Fortify::twoFactorAuthentication(function ($request, $user) {
// Check if the user should be exempt from two-factor authentication
if (!$user->shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication()) {
return false;
}
return true;
});
}
In this updated `twoFactorAuthentication` method, we call the `shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication` method on the `$user` instance. If the method returns `false`, the user will be exempt from 2FA.
With this implementation, users who meet the exemption criteria (in this case, the email address) will not be required to set up or use two-factor authentication, while all other users will still be subject to the 2FA requirement.
You can further customize the `shouldEnableTwoFactorAuthentication` method to check for other user attributes or conditions to determine who should be exempt from two-factor authentication.
