Ip address and same browser verification between otp/magicLink trigger and verification.

I trying to check the IP address of magic link trigger and magicLink verification, both the ip address need same. And also trying to implement one more case where both the magicLink trigger and MagicLink will be happening in the same browser, if magicLink verification happens at different browser, the i expect the verification not to happen. Can you please help me in this?

how to configure postgres schema

I am using postgres db for better-auth, my tables were present in a user schema not in public schema how to make sql queries to get executed in the proper schema, by default all the sql queries are getting executed in public schema of postgres

Using postgres Instead of pg in Better Auth – Is It Possible?

I see that better-auth uses the pg npm library for database connections. However, I want to use the postgres npm package instead. Is it possible to configure Better Auth to work with the postgres library instead of pg? If so, how can I do it? Thanks in advance!
