Use OAuth Plugin for Auth0 more seamlessly

E-mail authentication should be or should have been handled via Auth0, not via Discourse.

I believe you can check this setting in discourse auth_overrides_email for this.

@tobi1

After authentication with Auth0, people should not have to create a new user, instead it should all be fine because of Auth0.

And you can use this sight setting for this: auth_skip_create_confirm

When signing up via external auth, skip the create account popup. Best used alongside auth_overrides_email, auth_overrides_username and auth_overrides_name.

There is also the auth_immediately setting which might do what you are after as well:

Automatically redirect to the external login system without user interaction. This only takes effect when login_required is true, and there is only one external authentication method

@tobi1

There should still be the possibility to login as the admin user, as this might turn out to be more challenging after implementing point no. 1.

You can visit /u/admin-login to bypass oauth.
