[image] when I tried to grant a user admin privilege this happened, is this a bug or I missed some settings or configuration? I need help for this.

Do you have 2factor authentication enabled for your admin account? I can’t reproduce that message without having 2fa on the admin account, but with the correct 2fa code, it gets overridden and I am able to grant admin access.

[image] I’m not sure these are all settings for 2-factor auth, I enabled for staff before and I still have to input the code to sign-in, but I think I set it back to default earlier. should I disable the first one?

That are the general settings where you can set who has to enable 2 factor authentication. The settings for your account are at your preferences at {yoursite}/my/preferences/second-factor.

I tried to disable the enforce second factor on external auth, still 403, is anything else I missed configured?

I believe you need to be autheticate with 2fa yourself or disable it in your own user preferences like what Moin described above. I don’t know how your external authentication is configured though. I can reproduce the 403 you described, but with my correct 2fa code, it allows me to perform the adm…

I will try to find out, thanks anyway

Ich habe versucht, die Erzwingung des zweiten Faktors bei externer Authentifizierung zu deaktivieren, immer noch 403. Habe ich etwas anderes übersehen, das konfiguriert werden muss?
