Google login for legacy users Answered

Post author

Hello,

I tried the google signup and login, with works great for the new users. But it seems like the legacy users that have a gmail (= that signed up with email + password) cannot use the google login ? 

Is there a way to link a memberstack account to the google account of the user ? 

Thanks, 

William

    Hey William de Broucker 👋 (First off, I'm terribly sorry that your post got caught in a spam filter 😞).

    Members who signup with their Gmail address and password will need to 1) Login with their email and password 2) Navigate to your site's profile page 3) Click on the profile Google auth button to update their account. This is required so we know that the member is actively logged into both accounts. Could leave to security issues if we connected the accounts automatically.
