Question

How do I disable form autosubmit?

In 1Password 8 when I fill a login in Safari, it automatically submits the login. I would like 1Password to fill out the fields but not hit the submit button.

In earlier versions of 1Password, I was able to do that but I can’t find the equivalent setting in 1Password 8.

Note: I’m using the Cmd-\ quick access panel to fill in passwords.


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

@Gilles as far as I can tell there isn’t a single person here asking for removal of auto submit as a feature, just that it be optional for people where the flow doesn’t work. Please take some time to understand the things others are posting about or requesting before attempting to argue abasing them.

I say above that I agree IF it is optional for the ones that cannot live with it
I am not abasing them, I submit my opinion
You asked how many votes !

+1 vote please on disabling the autosubmit. From a security perspective, my preference is to always execute a webform myself manually. Thanks for the consideration.

+1 vote to disable autosubmit :)

+1 vote to disable autosubmit. Is there really no way to deactivate it?

I agree. Here's another vote to offer a setting to disable autosubmit.

Note, @BobW https://1password.community/discussion/comment/647839, but actually resulted in non-trivial privacy related issues.

I would love to hear someone from AgileBits comment on that, hopefully acknowledging the ramifications.

Until then, +10k on this issue for me, please.

Hi folks,

Thank you for the continued feedback on this. I don't want to give anyone false hope, but I do think this is something we'll add a toggle for.

+1 This is essential to have. I had stayed on the old 1PW Chrome extension for as long as possible (which seemed faster & less clunky), but since it is not compatible with 1PW 8, I had to upgrade.

It's probably a separate bug, but for some reason on several sites (chase.com most recently, but a few others too) when I hit ⌘-/, it autofills some completely irrelevant credentials (ones that don't share a domain or subdomain and don't appear if I click the dropdown list). I would have a chance of catching that if I had to click the submit button myself, but with autosubmit on, I don't.

This is the kind of polish that originally made me choose 1PW over the competition years ago, but it seems like the eye has drifted from the focus on usability with all the newer functionality. I appreciate the newer functionality, but if the core features aren't right, I'll start looking elsewhere again.

+1. Autofill is great, autosubmit isn't, and causes headaches.

(I would also like the option to disable autofill for anything that isn't a username/password field, but that's a separate issue entirely.)
