Is there a better control of password updates?

iwaddo

It is great that 1P prompts me to add a new or update existing login or password details when it thinks an update is required.

But, is there a way of stopping this prompt when I have only used 1P to find a selection of random characters from a password and not actually changed anything?

Hi @iwaddo!

But, is there a way of stopping this prompt when I have only used 1P to find a selection of random characters from a password and not actually changed anything?

I am not sure I understand this part. Can you please clarify?

Hi, @ag_ana, sorry not to have replied sooner, I do not need to login in very often and I do not recall getting a notification.

When I login in to my bank or one of many other sites I need to provide characters from my password, say characters 1, 3 & 5. I use 1P to find these letters which I have to manually enter into the login prompt. When I press enter to complete the login process 1P pops up and asks me if I want to update my password which of course I don't as I have not actually changed anything.

Can I stop 1P prompting under these circumstances?

Thank you for your help.

Regards

Ah, I see, you have a second step for your bank and 1Password is interpreting that as a password field. You can't set 1Password to not prompt for those fields specifically, but you can set 1Password to not prompt to save passwords for the entire domain in general if you'd like. The settings for that are within the Browsers tab of 1Password's preferences.

@Corey_C This works, excellent, thank you.

All I need now is a button on the 1P prompt pop-up where I can automatically add the entire domain to the 'not to prompt' list with a single click.

Thank you for your help.

It's already there.

See that gear button on the bottom left of the pop up? Click it and there is an option to never prompt to save passwords on that site.

@Corey_C Excellent, I cannot believe you managed to develop and deploy that so quickly, great service, thank you 😉
