5 years agoHey @cspalding ,
The classic extension was our main attraction for many years, but is now considered legacy and no further development will be made with it.
The new 1Password in the browser is where our focus is, and yes, it can now work with CMD+\ in certain situations. To be specific, if you have a single login item for a website, pressing CMD+\ will autofill it as you expect. However, if you have multiple login items for that website, then CMD+\ won't work (currently).
Using OPT+CMD+\ is basically a workaround, as it calls 1Password mini from the desktop app instead of the extension, but is also why it launches a new tab instead of filling in the current one you're on. If you'd like a better experience, I'd suggest utilizing the extension's shortcut. By default, in Chrome it is CMD+SHIFT+X, and in Firefox it is CMD+. (Command + Period). In both, you can change the default shortcut in the extension's settings until you find one that is available and that works to your liking.
As for the issue you mentioned at the end - that's a known issue that our developers are investigating, in which some metadata is appended to the URL and causing an invalid URL open in the browser.
All of the above is on our radar and hopefully will improve soon. :)
