Check if user logged in on unprotected page when logging out to that page

Describe the bug

For the login page of my Nuxt 3 app if user is logged in I want to redirect the user to dashboard page automatically. You can't use authenticatedUser() on the login page since it is not a protected page, and when using user to do a simple test like this both in middleware or on login page itself when signing out - it stays on dashboard page until complete refresh?

Thanks for the lib and goold luck with uni

//login.vue
const user = useUser();
if (user.value) {
  navigateTo("/dashboard");
}

Sounds like a Nuxt question? I don't use Nuxt so I don't think I help much either

@pilcrowOnPaper, nope - it is a lucia question. Why is user.value still true after logging out before completion of redirect to login page...

[pilcrowOnPaper]

Because there's nothing updating the value of user.value? Just set the value to null after making a fetch request if you need it before the redirect

you rock - just to understand, after redirect it auto sets to null?

When you redirect, the middleware for the destination page runs which fetches the latest user data
