How to turn off auto submit?

Recently, 1Password has started not only filling in my username and passwords but also clicking the submit buttons as well. While this seems like a good idea, it often results in an error on the websites I use the most and I always have to refill and submit the form by hand. I want 1Password to fill in my login information but let me hit the Submit button so I don't get these errors. I unchecked the Autofill General setting but 1P is still automatically submitting the forms.

As an aside, I feel like 1P is submitting the forms too quickly and that's what is causing this problem. It may be submitting the form before it actually fills the form field in.


1Password Version: 8.10.39
Extension Version: 2.27.1
OS Version: 14.5
Browser: Chrome

Hello @robertfdev! 👋

I'm sorry that the autosubmit feature is getting in the way, you can turn off autosubmit by following these steps:

  1. Open your browser.
  2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings.
  3. Click Autosave & fill.
  4. Turn off "Sign in automatically after autofill".

Let me know if that doesn't work.

Not sure if I should submit a new post or not, but is there a way to turn off auto-submit individually for one login? I have a site that has an external 2FA device that generates a 6 digit code that I have to append onto my password before I submit. I do like the auto submit, but I have to manually copy and paste the username and password in order to append the extra 2FA code. This was an option in some previous 1Password versions (old), but I can't figure out a way to do it in the latest version (I think I'm on version 8.10.50)

@kaeatxnet

You can definitely turn off autosubmit for just a single website:

  1. In your browser, click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar.
  2. Find and click on a login item.
  3. Click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the item's details and then click "Don't sign in automatically".

I hope that helps. 🙂

Thanks Dave!

I think the "Sign in automatically" threw me off.
