Sorting of 1P logins in Safari vs. 1P app

I have several logins to a given website.  I always sort my logins in the 1p app by title alphabetically and use spaces to ensure the order I want regardless of actual letters in login.

Here is a screenshot of the 3 user logins in the 1Password app.  As you can see by using spaces and dashes I am able to get the order I want as shown by the red numbers.

 

But when I go to login on the webpage the 1P Safari app pops them up this way.  As you can see, logins 2 and 3 are no longer in the alphabetical sort order as they are in the 1P app.

Is this a random bug?

Hi @jehrler,

Thanks for the annotated images to make this clearer. That was a big help!

Can you try favoriting each of these logins in the 1Password app? You can favorite them by right-clicking on the item and selecting Add to Favorites. Favorites get sorted alphabetically when the extension suggests the logins for a website, so I think that will give you the result you're looking for. Let me know if that's not working!

I should be clear that the sort is set on using the title + alphabetically and these are screenshots of the relevant login titles.

**bleep**.  You are smart!  I had accidentally favorited the "-jre..." and not the " - js..."  Once I unfavorited the "-jre..." it assumed the correct position.  THANKS.  Never would have thought of that.  (Favoriting all of them/none of them also worked to reestablish the sort order).

That was a "dang" in the prior post.  BTW, I did and do want " - jt ..." favorited (but only this one) and that is why, even with the -jre favorited, -jt was first in Safari as it was favorited and first alphabetically.

Glad that worked, @jehrler!

Sorry about the Community software's profanity filter. It's quite puritanical :)
