- Install the extension recommended by Plesk, 'Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)'.
- Open the Advisor extension in the admin panel.

ACTUAL RESULT

- A warning is shown: 'The Google Authenticator extension is not installed'.

EXPECTED RESULT

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The Advisor extension should check for the newly recommended extension, 'Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)'.
