Missing post: Watchtower Score not increased by MFA, passkeys or better passwords
Some days before the forum migration, I posted Watchtower Score not increased by MFA, passkeys or better passwords which had some useful contributions from 1P_Dave. This post no longer turns up in any search I've tried and is missing from the posts which show up under Contributions on my Settings page.
While a post getting lost is no big deal, while the forum was offline I worked with several of the excellent support staff and we made some useful, interesting and material discoveries with the promise of more to come. Since no-one but they and I will ever see these, I said that I would update the thread.
For reference, the main part of my initial post was
Months ago my score for over five hundred (mostly Login) items was N. Since then I have
• replaced many tens of VERY GOOD passwords with EXCELLENT passwords,
• added tens of one-time passwords†,
• added around ten passkeys,
• archived around ten Login items with GOOD or VERY GOOD passwords and no one-time passwords or passkeys, and
• added around ten Login items with EXCELLENT passwords, one-time passwords, and passkeys.
There are now no Login items with Two-factor authentication† or Passkeys available, or any of the other drop-down categories.
My score is now... N - that is, unchanged.
According to How to improve your Watchtower score in 1Password, at the very least Enable 2FA is one of the changes which should have increased the score.
PS. Requiring tags and having the current fixed set of tags which exist without explanation is worse than harmless, since it undermines the utility of useful future tags.
Thanks for following up AJCxZ0! I appreciate the time and effort you put into investigating this with our support team, and I understand how frustrating it must be to lose access to that discussion.
After taking deep-dive look on my end, it looks like the post you're mentioning accidentally ended up in an archived category -- you should be able to find this thread over here now. Sorry about that! Please do let us know if you notice any additional threads you're unable to find as we settle in.
Also, thanks for the feedback on tags! We’re still fine-tuning things in the new Community, so I’ll pass that along to the team. Let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help!
