Does not work on yahoo.com
I have Windows 10, and the latest versions of 1password, chrome, and firefox. I have a 1password link for my yahoo mail, and it works fine from the plugin 1n chrome and firefox - but ONLY if I am not on the main yahoo site. As yahoo.com is my home page, this is an issue.
In other words, if I go to www.yahoo.com, and click on my 1password yahoo mail link from within the browser, it does ... nothing. It works fine if I am currently on any other web site. Also, the other links work fine when I am on the yahoo.com site; for example, I can click on my amazon link and it works perfectly. If I am on the amazon website I can click on my yahoo mail link and it works perfectly. From the windows app, I can click on my yahoo mail link and it works perfect. But with either chrome or firefox, if I am currently on the yahoo.com site, clicking on the link from the plugin has no effect.
If it helps, the is the website link stored in my 1password yahoo mail link:
https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=fpctx&.intl=us&.lang=en-US&.done=https://www.yahoo.com
Thanks for your help.

@babbchuck: I think the problem is that https://www.yahoo.com does not have a login form, so 1Password cannot fill it -- ergo, nothing happens.
If you're at another website entirely and select your Yahoo login, 1Password will open the URL you have saved, such as https://login.yahoo.com/config/login
But when you're already at yahoo.com, 1Password recognizes this as a match for the login you've selected, so it tries to fill for you. If it didn't, then when there was a login form present, 1Password wouldn't be filling that either.
On the Yahoo site, there's a link to go to the login page. 1Password can't do things like click links for you, but if you open it yourself, then a quick
Ctrl \should allow 1Password to fill it for you easily.I hope this helps. Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions! :)

Thanks for the prompt reply, Brenty. The ctrl \ trick works. BTW, it works even though several family members share the same windows login, but have different yahoo accounts - the ctrl \ pulls up a list of the yahoo logins we can choose from.

Yep! That's why I love it too. I think the keyboard shortcut may be my single most used "feature" of 1Password. And certainly if you're using a shared vault with multiple family members' logins, that can work too. I just didn't want to take that for granted, since not everyone wants to do that. Cheers! :chuffed:
