Non-LDAP login stops working

[lukas-frey]

Hello, so I have followed the instructions from https://ldaprecord.com/docs/laravel/v2/auth#synchronized-database-authentication to enable LDAP login for my LDAP users, but still allow non-LDAP users to log-in (which I understood from that description should be possible?
Your application may need to authenticate other registered non-LDAP users.

However, this seems not to be the case. What am I doing wrong?

I authenticate the user according to the documentation:

$credentials = [
    'mail' => '[email protected]',
    'password' => 'password',
];

if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {
    $user = Auth::user();

    return redirect('/dashboard')->with([
        'message' => "Welcome back, {$user->name}"
    ]);
}

and while it works for LDAP users, it doesn't work for non-LDAP users. Tried changing mail back to email and it didn't work either.

Or am I supposed to create another provider and then swap between those providers based on how I want to authenticate?

Hi @LukasFreyCZ,

I believe you’re looking for fallback authentication:

https://ldaprecord.com/docs/laravel/v2/auth/database/laravel-ui/#fallback-authentication

Can you give that a shot?

Omg how could I have missed that. Thank you! :)
