Announcement for our lovely forum users: You can now add a passkey to your account by navigating to your User Preferences → Security page.
After adding a passkey to your account, you will be able to sign in to the forum without a username and password, with the “Sign in with a passkey” button:
Signing in with a passkey bypasses two-factor authentication on your account when logging in. If you want to always require a password and a security key, you should not add a “passkey” to your profile, you should only add a security key in your “Two-Factor Authentication” settings.
You cannot disable password logins after adding a passkey. You can prevent password logins from accessing your account without a security key by additionally adding a security key in your “Two-Factor Authentication” settings.
i tried to create a passkey on my google account with my physical security key using the same browser and OS and it worked.
There seems to be some another issue relating to the website implementation of passkeys.
Though i would like to know more about how passkeys are technically different from webauthn.
