Safari extension loses all its settings everytime I clear cache

Hi, Since a few weeks, everytime I clear my browser cache, the extension settings returns to defaults. E.g. autosubmit keep being enabled even though I disabled it before. Thanks ! 1Pa...

Hello Tcheuck! 👋

Thank you for reaching out. By "clear cache" do you mean that you choose the Clear History option in Safari?

If the answer is yes then this is expected behaviour in the Safari web browser, Safari web extensions (of which 1Password for Safari is one) store configuration data in the same bucket that Safari clears when you choose to clear history/cache. Clearing Safari's history/cache will reset 1Password for Safari's preferences.

Let me know if you have any questions.
