Question

Password filling twice

When I use the browser extension with the fingerprint activation to unlock, and if there is only one entry for the site in question, the password field fills twice. As far as I can tell, this happens on every site. I don't know if it happens if/when I'm forced to activate the extension by typing my password. Works fine on mobile I think.


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.10.3 (81003012)
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 11.7.4
Browser:_ Firefox 110.0.1

I'm not sure if I understand the issue here correctly, but I am experiencing 1password pasting the password into the password input twice "back-to-back" in some cases. Is this what is described here? If so, what is the timeline of a fix for this?

Hey @ticuliced,

Can you let me know the steps you are taking to fill so I can check to see if you are running into the issue mentioned above? Are you using a keyboard shortcut?

Hey @steph_giles apologies for the delayed response. I am not sure when it occurs because it does so seemingly at random. It just did happen, however, when trying to log in to 1password.com, but has happened with various sites before. I am using the keyboard shortcut (⌘+\), yes.

Hey @ticuliced,

Thank you for getting back to me.

In the issue listed above, 1Password is filling the password twice in Firefox if you used the shortcut when 1Password is locked.

Does the workaround listed here help at all: https://1password.community/discussion/comment/685928/#Comment_685928

Apologies for the disruption.

Hi @steph_giles, yes, know that you say it, that is indeed the case. I must have overlooked the previous answer – it sounds like it might be that. Though I just tried to disable 'Universal Autofill' and it is still happening – so I am actually unsure?

In any case, as this is a known issue: Is there any timeline for a fix, given that it was reported back in March, already?

@ticuliced

Thanks for the reply. How did you turn off Universal Autofill? If you removed the system permission then you might need to fully close 1Password from the menu bar and then reopen it before those changes take effect.

Just to confirm: does the workaround in the previous post help?

Is there any timeline for a fix

I don't have an ETA to share at the moment, the issue is still in our developer's backlog to be further investigated and fixed in the future. Thank you for your continued patience.

@1P_Dave I turned it off in the 1Password settings (Settings > General >Autofill > "Submit automatically with Universal Autofill") – does that not actually turn it off? Yes, the problem only occurs when 1Password is locked, so unlocking it first does seem to be a viable workaround.

@ticuliced

Thanks for the reply. Turning off that option just means that the login won't be automatically submitted by having 1Password click on any "Login" or "Next" buttons in the login form after filling your password. Universal Autofill will still fill your credentials but will leave clicking the login button to you.

I'm happy that the workaround provides some help. I'm sorry again for the inconvenience.

OK, I'm now willing to pay a bounty to make this go away. Starting at $100, but I'm sure we can start crowd sourcing. Let's make Firefox a not-2nd-class experience.
