Have to Keep Resetting Things
Hi. Since upgrading to 1P8 (which I love), I must keep resetting certain things...namely, I have to keep choosing a specific vault in both the menubar and Safari (it keeps going back to all vaults). ...

2 years agoThank you for the screen recording, that helps me understand what you're seeing on your end. It looks like you're looking at two different things:
- In the browser extension you're selecting a vault named "JKK".
- In Quick Access you're selecting a collection named "JKK".
A collection is a group of vaults and you must have created a collection named "JKK" at some point which is also the name of a vault that you have in your account. Collections aren't supported by, or visible in, the browser extension yet but I'm hopeful that this is something that will be added in the future.
When you click on the "JKK" vault in the browser extension you're letting the browser extension know that you'd like to temporarily switch to that vault in order to look for items in that vault. However this selection is only temporary and the next time that you click on the extension pop-up you'll be reverted back to whatever accounts and vaults that you have selected in Extension > Settings > Accounts & Vaults.
This is done so that, if you want to temporarily look into one vault using the browser extension, you won't only receive suggestions from that one vault for websites that you want to log into until you remember to change the selected vault in the future.
I can definitely see the utility of having the extension support collections and to have the same collection be selected in both Quick Access and the browser extension. I've filed a feature request on your behalf to show the product team that you'd like to see this in the future.
