Trying to setup a private group which allows new invited users to join with external providers, and I’m using Google OAuth2 as my starting point. I have the invite link created and the Google oauth2 project setup. When clicking the invite link I’m getting the create local account dialog, however thi…

I just tested this and found what I was expecting. When enable local logins is disabled, clicking the invite link displays a “Sign in with Google” modal: [image] When enable local logins is enabled, the username/password modal is shown: [image] The text on the signup modal lets users know that …

[Bild] Kurtis Rodgers: How do I get the Google oauth option to appear on the invitation? Just to confirm, is it correct that you have configured Google logins for your site, and have the invite only and enable local logins settings enabled? [image] If so, I’m wondering if you would get the…

Here is my portion of that form. Note that the invite only checkmark is missing. I cannot find this setting anywhere, now. I ultimately want invite only, but I can’t even change it to experiment at the moment. [login-settings] The site is enforcing invite only, and I recall setting that when I cr…

Are you on the Basic hosting tier? There is no public access with that level. If you are self-hosted, or otherwise, I am not sure why those settings would not be there.

That totally makes sense! Thanks so much. Yes, this is on the 14-day trial. I am actually not looking for public access, even once I’m on a paid subscription. I believe the Basic tier should support what I am looking for, however.

[Bild] Kurtis Rodgers: I can try turning off local logins just to see what that would do. I’m going to want that feature back however. Maybe hold off on that. I don’t want to suggest anything that could cause you to lock yourself out of the site. I’ll test it out and let you know what I find. …

[Bild] simon: I don’t want to suggest anything that could cause you to lock yourself out of the site /u/admin-login should get you back in even if local logins are off.

Well, that is disappointing. Obviating the need for Yet Another Useless Password is the entire point of authentication services like this in the first place. I was hoping to offer my users a choice of authenticating with Google, FB, Discord, etc. just so they didn’t have to create another account t…

@simon , thanks very much for the time you put into testing this! Sorry to be sour about the result.

Invites work only with local log in. The other thing you might try is allow people to join without am invite, but require approval for creating accounts.

I have successfully tested the invite link with local logins disabled, and it prompted me for a Google account just fine. So that actually appears to work. I’m only interested in Basic Hosting, so I have no choice but to use private, invite-only logins anyway.

Dies hat sich ein paar Mal geändert. Einladungen funktionieren jetzt mit OAuth2-Anmeldeproviders. Ich glaube, sie funktionieren auch mit DiscourseConnect. Ich war mir da nicht sicher, also habe ich es gestern getestet.
