Hi Auth0 Community,
I’m currently implementing passwordless authentication using email and OTP in my application. Here’s the setup and the challenges I’m facing:
What I’ve Done:
- Enabled Passwordless authentication with email (OTP) in my Auth0 dashboard.
- Went to Branding > Universal Login and selected the Lock (passwordless) template under the Login tab.
- Enabled the Custom Login Page toggle and used the Lock (passwordless) widget as recommended.
- Customized the template as much as possible within the provided HTML/CSS and Lock widget options.
Current Experience:
- The Lock (passwordless) widget offers only limited customization for branding and layout.
- I’m unable to fully match the login page’s appearance to my application’s design or provide a seamless user experience.
- The customization options (mainly through CSS) are not sufficient for my needs, and editing the widget’s UI feels restrictive.
- The warning “One or more pages are using custom HTML to override the Universal Login experience” appears, which I understand is expected, but it highlights the lack of flexibility in the current setup.
What I Want:
- More flexible and advanced customization options for the passwordless email (OTP) flow when using Universal Login and the Lock (passwordless) widget.
- Ability to easily modify the layout, UI components, and overall appearance to better match my app’s branding—ideally without having to build a completely custom UI from scratch.
- Guidance or roadmap information on whether Auth0 plans to improve customization for passwordless flows in the Universal Login (especially the New Experience).
Questions:
- Are there any recommended approaches or best practices for achieving a more custom/branded experience with the Lock (passwordless) widget?
- Is there a way to extend or override more of the Lock widget’s UI components?
- Are there plans to bring better passwordless customization to the New Universal Login experience?
Any advice, workarounds, or updates would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
