Best way to protect routes in TanStack Start?
What's the best way to protect all private routes like
/dashboard*, so they redirect to /login if no session exists? I don't see this aspect in the example: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/tree/main/examples/tanstack-example
Below is my attempt, but session is always null, even if the user is authenticated.

Social login Account creation with additional field

Manually create a session
Hi, for testing purposes I want to create a session in my own controller, and set the right cookies. Although, it seems like the sesison token has to be in a certain structure. Has anyone got a better idea on how I can implement this?

Password not updating on resetPassword
Hi,

How to Force Email-OTP Plugin to Use Redis Instead of PostgreSQL
In my Next.js project, I'm using the
email-otp plugin for authentication. The primary database is PostgreSQL, and Redis is set up as a secondary storage. I assumed that sessions and OTP verification would be handled through Redis.
However, when attempting to send an OTP, I get this error:
```...Image not updating when using genericOAuth client.oauth2.link
When I sign up a new user with
client.signIn.oauth2 the user info I get from my OAuth provider contains a image parameter that goes into my user image field in my db.
But when I try linking an existing user using client.oauth2.link the user info I get from my OAuth provider still contains a image parameter but that info never gets updated in my user image field in my db.
