How to manually save a username when 1P can't recognize the field?

Question

I have an issue that on certain websites, 1password can't detect the field with the username so I need to manually add it every time to log in, I wish there was a way to manually add it to the entry so I don't need to manually type the username.

1Password Version: 8.8.0
Extension Version: 2.3.7
OS Version: macos 12.4
Browser:_ Chrome

Hi @SteveDGrossman

I would suggest trying the steps below to manually save a login:

Visit the sign-in page for the website where you want to save a login.
Enter your username and password. Don’t click Sign In.
Right-click the 1Password icon in your browser’s toolbar and choose Save Login.
Give the login a name, choose a vault, then click Save.

If 1Password isn't detecting fields or behaving as it should be on certain websites please send the URL's our way so we can do some testing and best advise.
