Deleted 'Secret Key' from my 1password database
Hello everyone,
In my 1password database, I deleted the initial entry to log into my.1password.com (including the 'Secret Key').
Now I have re-created the Item, but I don't know how to put the 'Secret Key' field back in, allowing it to auto-fill on my.1password.com.
How can I re-create the entry for my.1password.com?
I DID *NOT* ACTUALLY LOSE MY 'SECRET KEY'. My 'Emergency Sheet' is saved offline. I only want to re-create the associated entry in the 1password database.

Hey fernando91,
Thanks for your reply. You may actually be able to restore the previous version of the item prior to the deletion of the Secret Key field. Sign in to your account on 1Password.com and check out:
Let me know how that goes!

Thank you, creating the 'Secret Key' field actually did work.
The only other issue I see is that the 'Secret Key' is shown in plaintext instead of as ***** asterisks.
Is there some way to block it out, or is this field normally shown in plaintext?Edit: Creating a Text field and renaming it to 'Secret Key' does work, but the text isn't hidden. But creating a Password field and renaming it does not work. It doesn't autofill on my.1password.com.
