The Sony/Playstation website does not work correctly
When trying to log into my Playstation account from Firefox on Ubuntu, it always tells me my username or password is incorrect.
First I autocomplete the username (my email) using 1Password, this works fine, then I autocomplete in the next step my password and click Sign In, that's when it tells me it was wrong. I have to copy my password manually and, when I enter it, it's correct so I guess the extension is entering my email when it should be entering my password.
This is the website: https://my.account.sony.com
1Password Version: 8.8.0
Extension Version: 2.3.7
OS Version: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
Browser:_ Firefox 103.0

@Joy_1P wow, that’s an interesting situation. I would have never thought of that.
Anyway, I just change my password to one with 30 characters and it works perfectly now.
Thank you very much 👏👏 - Anonymous
jesusjimsa The website has a requirement of 30 characters max for the password. Here is a screenshot showing that in the website's code: https://share.cleanshot.com/phJUia.
When you copy and paste the password in, the website truncates it to 30 characters and that's why you're able to log in. However, if you use 1Password to fill, the website doesn't truncate the password and tries to submit the entire 32 character string. That's why you cannot log in. The solution is to edit your login, remove the last two characters from the password, and save the changes. Outside of that, you can change the password for the site completely but please make sure there are only 30 characters in it. Afterwards, you can try filling the password to the site, and it should work. Let me know how that goes!

@Joy_1P it has 32 characters.
And it does meet the requirements because, if I enter it by copying it, it works fine. The problem is just with autocomplete, somehow. - Anonymous
jesusjimsa Just to check, how many characters are in your password for the site? Don't tell me what the password is, but let me know how long it is. I'd like to check if it meets the website's requirements.

@Joy_1P Yes, I access through https://www.playstation.com/es-es. No extensions to translate anything. I only have the 1Password extension, and the Super Agent (for cookies) and DuckDuckGo extensions. I just tried disabling them and the issue is still there.

jesusjimsa Thanks for the recording. I was testing on the English version of the site but I see that you're using the Spanish version of the site. Can you tell me if you're accessing that through https://www.playstation.com/es-es? Are you using any extensions to translate the page or anything like that?

Let me know if it doesn't work either and I'll send it to the email.

Hello @Joy_1P,
I have just tried saving the login manually as it's explained in the link and it happened again. I have recorded a video of what happens:
The exact same thing happens with the original Playstation login.
