4 years ago1Password suggesting email addresses instead of login
Hi,
Wondering if I am missing something - this is a more recent problem where 1Password consistently will suggest a contact email address from my saved identities instead of the login. This is always when the login window is split where it first asks for the username and then the password - kind of like the Google login process. And there's no way to actually get to the login other than manually opening it from the toolbar. Unless of course like in this example the toolbar is missing - then I have to manually copy and paste it from the Mac toolbar or 1Password app itself. The example here is the Boxcryptor login.
https://www.boxcryptor.com/app/ (redacted as it includes login keys)
Even the context menu doesn't allow for showing the full 1Password.
Is there a setting where I can change this behaviour?
Thanks
Andy

No, there is no setting to change it. It’s a regression in their auto-filling logic as a result of making the identity suggestion more prominent: https://1password.community/discussion/124167/1p-inserts-wrong-email-address
The current suggested workaround is exactly what you’re doing: filling using the toolbar button. Reportedly, this will be improved in a future update.
