I have Google and Discord oauth set up, but when a user invites someone they must use the email signup, why? /signup allows them to use Oauth

I’m not sure why things are configured that way. I looked into this a few months ago: [Invite Only with External Accounts - #8 by simon](https://meta.discourse.org/t/invite-only-with-external-accounts/279181/8). When `enable local logins` is disabled, buttons to login via an external auth provider are shown on the “accept invite” page, so it should be technically possible to display those buttons when `enable local logins` is enabled.

ah, i see. although i want both features since some users still use email logins.
