user prompted to set up a new auth method every login

Hi all, we're seeing users that require auth prompted to set up a new authentication method on every login, despite the existing logins being listed on the login page. We're not seeing any setting that would control this.

Same here.

Same problem here: Admin completes "Authenticator App" logs out and on the next login no TOTP is requested but has to setup a new "Authenticator App".

There was a grace period of one week but this is over now. And it did work in this grace period...

I turned the grace period off and now it uses the "Authenticator App" setup for the admin user!

Maybe the "grace period" plugin needs more/better documentation and help texts? Please explain the options of this plugin in "ELI5" mode!
