Username Entered in WordPress Post Title in Addition To Username Field

ForHelpSake

If your login to WordPress ends, a sign-in box appears over the blog post you are working on. By using 1Password to login, not only is the username entered in the username field, but it also gets pasted into the WordPress post title too. Not sure how this is done as the post fields aren't normally accessible at the time because the password screen is up.

I'm seeing this behavior on multiple machines all running similar setups with OS X and Safari.

This screenshot shows the login screen that appears on a post when your login times out. You can recreate this by logging in, going to a post, then clearing your cookies for the WordPress site, and then making any edit. When the auto-save happens, it should prompt for your login. Using the 1Password autofill will then populate the username in the correct username field and also in the post title in the background.

Hi @ForHelpSake,

Thank you for the screenshot! Just to make sure I understand, you're saying that when you invoke the 1Password extension to fill the login form from that screenshot, it works (i.e. you're logged back in again) but it also puts your username in the title of the blog post? If so, that's a bit strange, especially since the post title field isn't part of that login form (and I don't think I see it in the background of the screenshot, either).

The next time you're prompted to sign in again while writing a blog post, please try copying/pasting your username and password from 1Password into that form. When you do that, can you confirm the problem does not happen?

Assuming it only happens when you have the 1Password extension fill the login details for you, you should try following these steps to save a new Login for that site. Then, the next time to need to sign in while writing a blog post, choose the new Login item. Does it still change the title of the post?

By the way, you can try manually saving 2 different new Login items - one from the main page, and one from the popup login page you see while writing your post (like in the screenshot). Try each one to see if it makes any difference.

Please let us know how it all goes! If it's still a problem, we'll continue from there. Thanks!
