Difference between save login and manually adding a field

in 1Password in the Browser

I would like to autofill an additional field in addition to username and password. I investigated the web page and got the name of the field and added it to the item. However, this way the field was not being autofilled. I then tried "save login" and that way it worked correctly (the field saved with save login had the same name that I had given manually). What is the difference between the two methods? Thank you

    Hey @vidario,

    If the custom field had the same name as the one captured when you used the 'Save Login' option then technically it should fill. The only thing I can think that could be different is maybe the type of field but I'd be happy to investigate it for you if you send over a link to the page in question.

    Thanks!

    Hi @steph.giles, thanks to your suggestion I investigated the field in question a little better and realized that I had created a field of type text, while the field was of type url.
    Thanks again
