ESPN login form no longer has id/name attributes on the fields

dswitzer

ESPN is now using a login form using AngularJS and the Username and Password fields no longer have either an ID or an Name attribute on them. The fields are using the "ng-model" attribute with a value of vm.username and vm.password.

Is there any way to use a custom selector to define the field name?

Is there a way to specify [ng-model="vm.username"] as the CSS selector to use for the field?

Hi @dswitzer! Good question. Is your previous Login item not filling correctly now? I just saved one manually on http://www.espn.com and it fills in the sign in popup they've got. While there isn't an ID on the input element, 1Password reads a bit more than just those. The input type, which in this case is email and password for the two fields, is a good place to start. If you saved a Login before the changes, you may have to save a new one for it to fill properly now. Let us know how that goes. :)

I tried saving a new login, but it exhibits the same behavior as my old one. I've actually tried creating a new saved profile several times now. In my version of 1password, "email" isn't a valid input type. I've tried it in both FF and Chrome and I get the same results with both extensions.

What platform and version are you on?

@dswitzer: I think maybe the problem is due to a combination of the old 1Password extension you seem to be using (based on your original post) and that we've made some improvements in the latest beta versions of 1Password 4. I tried this with the following and was able to save and fill a login at espn.com:

Chrome 52.0.2743.116 m
Firefox 48.0
1Password 4.6.0.BETA-612
extension 4.5.9

So the good news is that you can take advantage of this now if you're willing to use the beta, or simply wait for the stable release, which is only a matter of time. I hope this helps! :)

I'm not actually using an "old" version, but I am using the most recent stable version. Any idea when the current beta is supposed to be released?

@dswitzer: Ah sorry, perhaps "Extension Version: 4.5.3" was a typo, since that version was released in January. That's the only reason I mentioned it. I can't give a release date for the next stable release of 1Password 4 beyond when testing is complete. But again, the fix is already there so it will find its way to you when its finished. Cheers! :)
