4 years agoWhile 1Password 8 doesn't support standalone vaults, Ivan_K, I suspect you'll be happy to learn that it does introduce attachments to 1Password accounts. I personally still use Document items a ton and think they have their purpose, but I definitely agree that there are times attachments that are squarely part of their parent item make a ton more sense. A picture of my passport, for example, should really just live in my Passport item. Here's how you can add an attachment to your items in 1Password 8 for Mac:
- Edit your item (or click the
+ New Itembutton, if you're creating a new one). - Click the
+ add morebutton and selectAttach a File. You may need to scroll down a smidge. - Choose your file in finder, then click
Open. - Save.
This will show your file right in that item's details, but if you swap the category at the top of the item list to Documents, it won't be anywhere to be found. :chuffed: Feel free to give it a try and if it seems to fit the bill and that's all that was holding you back, we can totally help you migrate that private vault over to your account. :+1:
