Even with auth disabled, smart-chatbot-ui tries to load the NEXTAUTH URL @localhost and fails to load the page

Like most home users I use smart-chatbot-ui behind an nginx reverse proxy and basic_auth.

My only changes from .env.local.example are setting the API key and the default model. So NEXTAUTH_ENABLED=false.

The first time I visit https://chat.mydomain.com, I get prompted for basic_auth by nginx, I enter it, the page loads....then smart-chatbot-ui tries to redirect to http://localhost:3000 (using some callback URL), which obviously doesn't load. This localhost:3000 is the URL of NEXTAUTH in the default .env.local. Then I try to access chat.mydomain.com again, and it loads fine from then on.

If I try a private/incognito browsing session, the same happens: tries to load localhost:3000 on the 1st load. Re-entering the URL makes it work.

Is there a way to completely disable this auth redirect? Other self-hosted tools tend to give you an option for that. It's a minor issue but I'd like to give some people access to my instance and this would confuse them.
