default suggested password complexity

Options

When changing my password to an online account, how can I "not use the suggested password". How can I make it fit the websites restrictions?

    @djblais With the latest version of 1Password in the browser you can choose the default recipe for suggested passwords. Click on the 1Password extension icon then the large '+' symbol then Password Generator. Here you can generate passwords according to a number of pre-defined recipes, adjust the recipe, manually edit the resultant password and choose the default recipe for suggestions.

    While that's true @missingbits , you don't need to change the default recipe.

    You can simply get to the password generator and generate your own passwords when the suggested ones aren't suited for the website :)

    Hi @ag_yaron, while on a website changing/creating a password and the "use suggested password" pops up, can I get to the generator from there? If so this would be much more expedient.

    Hey @djblais ,

    There's no way to get to the generator from the inline menu, but we have added a shortcut in our latest beta by putting the generator right there in the extension when you're on a page that requires a new password. This feature should reach the next stable version update, and it looks like this:

    That will definitely save some clicks and no longer require reaching all the way into the password generator :)
