4. Click Create Credentials → OAuth client ID
5. Set application type to Web application
6. Add the following to Authorized redirect URIs:
   https://yourdomain.com/auth/google/callback
   
7. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret

​

How it works

• A Sign in with Google button appears on the login and registration pages when enabled
• If a user signs in with Google and no account exists with that email, a new account is created automatically
• If an account already exists with the same email, the Google account is linked to it
• Email verification is skipped for Google-authenticated accounts
