It appears that 1password can't detect that I'm using an MFA on https://github.com/

In 1Password, it's showing the message "Two-Factor Authentication Available" at the top of my record for github.com, but I already have it enabled (Google Authenticator). How do I make this warning go away?

The problem is that 1PW knows which sites permit 2FA, and it knows which sites have 2FA enabled WITHIN 1PW, but it can't (and shouldn't) know if you have enabled 2FA through a third-party app.

However, the warning can be turned off by add the tag 2FA to the item.

@parkerpress - yep, @danco's advice is right on the money. Let us know if you need anything else. :)
