No valid bug report. Instead it sounds like a feature request, should it be moved to the feature requests board?

As the common web server doesn't have an SMS gateway, the code could alternatively be sent by email.

Yes please, can you move the thread. I was not sure where to place it.

On the issue at hand, I was thinking more of a solution like this wordpress plugin, where QR authentication code is generated for the web and you can scan the QR code or introduce it by hand in the Google Authenticator application.

For example, this plugin for WordPress, this screenshots are quite clear: https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-authenticator/screenshots/

I have this method implemented on several php pages and does not need any SMS or email, simply generate the QR code and insert it in the authentication application.

Thanks and regards,

Many PHP apps now include 2 step authentication, such as Joomla.
