Two Factor Issuer

Question

I have the django-two-factor-auth package working on my development server, I noticed however that the google authenticator app shows the ip:port after scanning the QR code. Is there a way to set the issuer to something else?

Answer 1

It seems that django-two-factor-auth uses the function django.contrib.sites.shortcuts.get_current_site to determine the issuer.

In order to change the value of the issuer you need to change the name field of the existing Site object with your desired value, this can be done through the django admin site.
