why won't DuckDuckGo autofill?

i use DuckDuckGo's search engine but if I want to use its browser and 1PW's autofill features (which I love, by the way) all that I get is to be taken to the website sign-in page. Nothing else works,...
browser extension

Hello HelenBubz! 👋

I'm sorry that Autofill isn't working in DuckDuckGo. DuckDuckGo doesn't support extensions so you'll need to use Universal Autofill to fill into that browser instead. Try the following:

  1. Make sure that Universal Autofill is enabled: Use Universal Autofill in apps and browsers on your Mac
  2. Open DuckDuckGo.
  3. Navigate to the sign-in page of the website that you'd like to sign into.
  4. Click into the username or password field on the page and then press Command-Backslash on your keyboard.

Does 1Password fill your login credentials into the website in question? If it doesn't then can you share the website address of the website in question?
