    Hardware Tokens section.

  Which hardware tokens this plugin supports?

The plugin is designed primarily to support Token2 hardware tokens, available here:
[https://token2.com/?content=hwtokens](https://token2.com/?content=hwtokens). A 
few other token models are supported as well. Feel free to contact us for more details:
[https://token2.com/contact](https://token2.com/contact).

  I have several users on my WordPress installation, is that a supported configuration?

Yes, each user has his own Token2 Hardware Tokens settings.

  During installation I forgot the thing about making sure my webhost is capable
of providing accurate time information, I’m now unable to login, please help.

If you have SSH or FTP access to your webhosting account, you can manually delete
the plugin from your WordPress installation,
 just delete the wp-content/plugins/
token2-hwtokens directory, and you’ll be able to login using username/password again.
