A way to open and fill in a new tab

Hello,

I am using Firefox 61.0.2. When click a URL in 1Password to open and fill, it seems like 1Password opens that URL in the last active tab. I have a pinned tab and if that is the only tab open, 1Password opens the URL in that tab which sort of defeats the purpose of a pinned tab.

Is there an option to tell 1Password to open and fill in a new tab?

Thanks,
Michael

  • Hi @mskopel

    The desired behavior you've described is the behavior I experience when using this feature (i.e. a new tab is opened). That said this is the default behavior... even on a brand new installation this is what I experience. As such it is likely that some configuration in your browser has changed this. Do you have any extensions installed in Firefox that might affect how tabs operate?

    Hi Ben,

    I have no addons to manage tabs. The only thing have done is modify FF configuration so that closing the last tab does not close FF (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1015675). I reset that to 'true' but it had no effect.

    I also tried making Chrome my default browser and had the same issue, clicking on a URL in 1Password opened the URL in the last tab, not a new one.

    Let me know if there is any additional information I should look for.

    Thanks.

    @mskopel - try typing ⌥ ⌘ \ (cmd + opt + backslash) to bring up the 1Password mini, then click the gear icon at the top right and scroll down to "Open URLs in New Tab" -- see what it's set to there.

    Try adjusting it to "New Tab" if it wasn't already. If it was, try setting it to something else (just for a second), then return to that setting and set it back to "New Tab." Let me know if that helps.
