Hi camner, thanks for reaching out!

I'm sorry that the 1Password suggestions are getting in your way while using this particular webpage. If the suggestions are just automatically being suggested when you focus on a field, you can prevent this behaviour using the following steps:

  1. Right-click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar, then select Settings.
  2. Click on Autofill & save in the side panel.
  3. Turn off the "Show autofill suggestions when a form field is in focus" setting.

If that doesn't work, or you'd prefer to keep that setting enabled because you're making use of it while interacting with other websites, you can try hiding 1Password on the page:

  1. Right-click on the page.
  2. Within the context menu that appears, select 1Password - Password Manager > Hide on this page.

Let me know if that works for you and if you have any questions. Additionally, since this behaviour involves 1Password in your browser, I've gone ahead and moved this thread to the 1Password in the browser topic.
