Email password configured but I get magic link
I have configured email and password by toggling in on in the kinde dashboard but when I try to use the creds in my react app, I get a otp-code auth flow.
I can't seem to figure out why that is happening

do you mean the frontend and backend app option on the kinde dashboard? if so, yes
the first image I shared correspond to the one you posted too
yeah still the same
the toggle was on before I tried to test the sign in/sign up flow
everything looks okay, I have 0 apps configured for email + code, so not sure why i'm getting that experience
Hey @Kenny,
The experience you are having does look odd.
I am struggling to reproduce your issue though.
Are you able to send over a recording of your experience? You can DM me if you prefer.
Thanks for responding, I will DM you a recording and hopefully that can help
Hi @Oli - Kinde i sent a request so I can send a DM
Just accepted your friend request
thanks
@Oli - Kinde I sent the video across
Thanks @Kenny,
I will review your videos with my team early next week.
Hey @Kenny,
Thanks for sending the video.
So when you have email + password authentication enabled, and a user signs-up for the first time, we verify their email by sending them an email OTP code. Once the email has confirmed the code, they will be asked to set a password.
Next time the user authenticates, they will be asked to enter a password and never asked to enter an email OTP again.
You can read more details about this here.
Let me know if you have any further questions on this.

aha, thnak you @Oli - Kinde
that makese sense
i think the dasboard could be clearer on that behaviour
i didn't even know that was how it worked
I agree it could be clearer in the Kinde Admin. I will pass this feedback on.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you come across any other issues, queries or feedback.
will do, there is one more issue I noticed. THe custom sign in option
even after selecting the toggle, i.e turning it on,
I still see the default pages in my app
Are you able to send another recording of this @Kenny and a code snippet?
