Command \ fill and multiple logins

esstroud

Hello. For certain sites I have multiple user logins stored. For some of those sites, 1Password asks which login I want to use when I hit the command+\ shortcut. On others, it picks one and submits without asking (this is the use case I'm trying to fix. I don't see any obvious settings that explains this behavior. Could you help? Thanks!

@esstroud: Of course we can! Help is our middle name: 1Pass-Help-Word. Or something. :pirate:

So it sounds like there may be some subtle differences with these logins. Take a look at:
a) the URLs in your login items,
b) the URLs of the login pages themselves,
c) Lenient URL Matching (in 1Password Preferences > Browser) to get the result you're looking for, or
d) all of the above.

Sometimes a 'website' is actually a collection of different login pages on different subdomains and even different domains altogether (e.g. citibank.com, online.citibank.com, and accountonline.com), so 1Password won't necessarily be offering you a single login for all three if they don't match.

And if you don't want to enable Lenient URL Matching across the board, another option is to simply edit a login item to add alternate URLs (under 'website 2', etc.) I hope this helps! :)

Hi Brent,

Thanks for the reply. I'm circling back to this after many months of neglect. You're solution set me on the right path.
