This is either a feature request or a cry for help on how to do it 😂

Basically what i want is a way to manually generate a password (im aware i get the popup that generates one for me when registering for an account etc) - but, lets say i need a secure password to copy paste into a router password field or something ... something 1password doesnt recognise .... can we have a button, or some kinda of clickable thing that will generate a password and stick it on the clipboard or something?


1Password Version: latest
Extension Version: latest
OS Version: latest
Sync Type: 1password

    @gaza1994 Have you found the password generator? When using 1Password in the browser (formerly known as 1Password X) click on the 1Password icon in the toolbar, then click on the large '+' symbol in the circle and select Password Generator. Here you can generate passwords according to a number of pre-defined recipes, tweak those recipes, edit the resultant password and copy it to the clipboard. You can also choose the default recipe for the Suggested Passwords pop-up.

    @gaza1994:

    If you are indeed using the version of 1Password in the browser that missingbits is referring to, those are the correct instructions :) Here are also a couple of screenshots for confirmation:

    @gaza1994 Glad that helped. I completely agree. I made a related point myself in the thread below:
