Saving passwords from the web is putting the password under the SAVED ON

in 1Password in the Browser

I'm having issues when I use "Save in 1Password" browser extension on sites that I visit.

I was expecting the password field to be saved in password under username. However it creates a separate Password field under the heading SAVED ON WEBSITE.COM

This is less than ideal as there is no password strength indicator with that field.

Am I doing something incorrect. This does not seem like an expected action.

Thanks for the help

    Hey @JoshFinks that behavior can occur if the website codes the password field as a text type field. If your password is saved to a password type field, then it will not fill in the text type field on the website.

    I've seen that happen on other websites but was unable to reproduce it on https://dash.cloudflare.com/login. Could you let me know what steps you took to save your login on there? Here's how it appears on my end: https://share.cleanshot.com/s0BrLGSP

    Thanks. I never got a notification about this so I apologize for the delay. So strange.

    What's strange is that I get this all the time at a lot of sites. I just tried it again and you are correct. I'll have to play with it some more to see how I might have had that happen.

    Thanks for the help
