It would be helpful if you could provide a reproducible project I can review. Just a thought—in case you're trying to sign out and then sign in to a different account, signing out might be clearing all session cookies, including multi-account cookies

Hello.
I have two options

  1. I Can give you access to the current codebase running for my project where the issue happenfs
  2. I just setup a fresh install / nextjs 15 with better Auth and it has same outcome, by simply following Docs:
    Get started
    -> installation
    -> basic usage
    Using mysql with Prisma

Only doing e-mail password combo

About the cookie clearing- the multi cookie is not even being set upon login, so if it cleared when logging out - I dont Think thats an issue.

The multi cookie is set upon login and cleared in the same second

Hey guys, I was just taking a look at this today. I’m still unable to reproduce the issue, so if you could make a public repo for me to review, that would be great.

Hi Bekacru
Thank you for looking into this issue.

i will give this a try on my project again to see if the issue persists. Maybe a update has fixed it?
I'll let you know.
