 * Even with the correct code emailed to the user, an error will appear stating 
   the login was unsuccessful due to having the wrong code. Please help.

 * Same problem here. Definitely entering the right code (time based, Google Authenticator),
   yet it says it’s the wrong code.

 * Identical problem when using this plugin with Google Authenticator. Panic code
   worked, which is some help, but when you only get three of these, this is a bit
   worrying. Am I going to have to seek out a different two-factor auth method?

 * Hey all the TOTP protocol used for this plugin is time sensitive. If the server
   you’re running your wordpress on has the wrong time, likely this plugin will 
   not work. Thought I’m not the author, I’d suggest looking into making sure the
   time on your server and phone is correct!
