Allow for more complicated password recipes / remember recipes per site
I would like to request two related features:
- I often need to generate passwords that have a number and a special character. Basically if both can somehow be part of the recipe, that would meet my needs.
- I often also need to rotate passwords for a given site frequently. These sites are a violation of NIST 800-63B, but the services are stupid about this and I don't see them changing their policies any time soon. These sites often require numbers and special characters AND often have a character limit of say 16 or 20 characters. It would be nice to save the recipe settings for individual sites for this reason - and this way the "default" recipe is more secure.

Hey there @cobaltjacket
You might find that 1Password in the browser already meets this need. Give this a try:
- Open 1Password in the toolbar of your browser and click (≡) > Password Generator.
- Change the Type to Smart Password.
If the website in question is following standards and encoding its password requirements in its code, 1Password can read that and can automatically generate a password that meets the requirements.
If not, you can set a default recipe for the password generator like this:
- Open 1Password in the toolbar of your browser and click (≡) > Password Generator.
- Set the recipe as you would like, including turning on numbers and symbols. (If these options are greyed out, change the _Type _from Smart Password to Random or Memorable.)
- Turn on "Use as default for suggestions" at the bottom.
Then, any suggested password you see, or any password you generate will (by default) follow the recipe you've just set.
I look forward to hearing how you get on. If you need something different, let me know and I'll be happy to help. :)
