Am I doing it wrong? Such a nuisance - identities & autofill non password forms
Many times 1password offers to fill in an identity and obscures the auto search functionality of that website. Try looking up your address on any Google addresses powered form, or even a cable TV pro...

1P_Evon, I want to echo notmax's request: suggestions from identities can be an obnoxious intrusion. Please let us turn them off, if you can't suppress them on login pages.
I use many different emails to sign into different websites, and they NEVER match the ones that popup, unwantedly, for many two-page logins that request an email address. (E.g. for newyorker.com, although not for nytimes.com, happily enough.)
Address autofill was always helpful, but a couple years ago, for some reason, you insisted on unilaterally "making the identity suggestion more prominent". I've begged you before: please give us an OPTION that preserves the expected experience, whenever you remove a feature (e.g. when you replace login suggestions with identity suggestion for some sites).
(Another bug: we NEVER need to know that there are "no items to show"! Why bother to tell us?)
Yes, I can clear the annoying pop-up with ESC. But I'm still faced with the bug that 1Password no longer suggests a LOGIN on that page.
BTW, 1P_Tommy's suggestion doesn't help at all. It does prevent the unwanted email addresses from popping up immediately, but when I click the 1Pwd icon in the field for my username (aka email) I get the same pointless pop-up. So, either way, I must click the browser toolbar icon to get the missing login suggestions.
Note also that this bug was reported at least 2-1/2 years ago! (https://1password.community/discussion/125989/1password-suggesting-email-addresses-instead-of-login)
Finally, beware that you'd probably have more complaints if more users were aware that this annoying popup is 1Password's fault. I found several complaints about this pop-up that are misattributed to the browser before I grasped that it's a 1Pwd misfeature.
