Exact match and close match... is it gone from 1Password 8?
Hello everyone!
I've been playing around with 1Password 8 and one thing I discovered and was rather annoyed with was that the browser plugin would not show me exact and close matches anymore.
<<<>>>
You can clearly see a big difference (hopefully despite me censoring the logins, yes?) in readability. In 1Password 8, all logins show up the same. It seems like the exact matches still show up on top, but where do they end and the close matches start? Lack of readability here.
And speaking of, why do the close matches in the 1Password 8 screenshot even appear? They belong to a different URL. More precisely:
The first login in that screenshot is https://www.domain.com/ (and that is the website we are at now).
All other logins in that screenshot are https://subdomain.domain.com/folder/folder/ (and that's not where we at now)
Thank you very much for your great support!

I've got a similar situation to the OP, albeit mostly for port numbers that host different services with different logins. In 1Password7 I would get an exact match or close match for each port/service. In 1Password8 I get a list of 20+ to manually scroll through which is not very useful. It looks like I will need to stick with 1Password7 for the moment despite all the prompts to upgrade that are now appearing in the desktop/mobile apps.

Hello @Platima,
Thanks for your message. I'm sorry to hear that you're missing this feature and have needed to revert to 1Password 7. As Jack mentioned, we can promise anything but I've passed this important feedback along to the product team for review while they are evaluating and working to make improvements on this front. Please let us know if you have any other concerns.

Hey how do I get 'Close Match' back? I've lost immediate access to HEAPS of logins now - out of 600ish saved, we'd have to modify most of them (1Password for Teams).
Similarly, I have 3x 1Password accounts, and I am struggling to get all 3 to work in the browser extension - adds one randomly, and when I try to sign in to another it has it as an option, then launches 1P to get the password - and I can see the account there - but then never adds it to Chrome.
Have rolled back to 1Password 7 on my work computer so I can at least sign into suppliers again, but I think this badly needs to be fixed in 1P 8. I have also advised my staff to all roll-back to 1P v7 too.
Thanks in advance.
