Auto Login Not Working

Hi @dogdog,

We don't automatically fill a page that you visit in the browser, filling has to be initiated in some way for reasons of security. Now you can fill an existing page as you already know how to or also by using the ⌘\ keyboard shortcut. If you click on a URL from the main 1Password window it will open a tab at that URL and then proceed to fill - it's what we call open and fill and may seem slightly more automated depending on your perspective. Both are manual though and purposely so.

So you're not doing anything wrong and by design we're not either although you may not agree.

Regarding your additional questions.

We don't have a way of subdividing up the Logins category. Supplementary to the hardcoded categories that exist, we do have the concept of folders and tags which may be sufficient depending on your precise needs. Folders do allow you to create hierarchies but our tags are probably more powerful in terms searching and the ability for multiple tags on a single item. We don't have any default tags, you simply create a new one by typing the name you'd like into the tag field and hitting the tab ⇥ key. Saving the edit will create the tag. Folders can be created using the File > New Folder menu option in 1Password. That's a very brief overview but if it's something that interests you and you have more questions do feel free to ask.

If you have multiple logins with the same website field then when you use ⌘\ to attempt and fill we will pop up the 1Password mini menu and list all of the viable Login items. We only fill without displaying the menu if a single item applies (meaning no user decision required). Whichever Login item you select will then be the one used for filling.

Does that help at all?

Hi @dogdog,

It looks like you've asked this question elsewhere as I thought I'd answered this :smile: You'll find my answer (as best I could anyway) in this post.
