    What do you do, if when signing in to a new website, the save password button doesn't appear? I've tried to save a password manually, in settings and it won't save there either.

    Hi @jillmid! Welcome to the forum!

    What version of the 1Password browser extension are you currently using? And is this happening on every website, or just with some of them?

    Hi and thanks for the help! I have 1Password 7. It appears to be happening on every one website. I then figured out how to add a password manually, (by clicking on the settings and then click on the "New Login") and that worked for some websites and then didn't work at all. So now I'm stuck. Thanks again.

    @jillmid:

    Thank you for the confirmation! If you open 1Password Preferences > Browsers tab, is the option named Detect new usernames and passwords and offer to save them enabled?

    Hi yes, it's enabled. And also, as I tried to sign in to a website and use 1Password, it wouldn't autofill the password. So now, I'm not saving any more passwords and then then ones I've saved, won't autofill. Please advise! Thanks!
