Future enhancement request?

I do a lot of genealogy research and all the websites require you to enter the names of your ancestors you are researching. 1Password keeps popping up offering to autofill. It would be nice if certain websites could be tagged to stop doing this.  I use 1Password to sign into the website, but once I am there, I want 1Password to turn off.  Am I expecting too much?  I use Edge and Chrome.

  • Hi annest​, thanks for joining our community!

    Is 1Password suggesting your identity items when you go to enter names? If so, there isn't an option to only fill a specific item type on a website, but I can suggest a couple options to help with this.

    The option I would start with myself would be to to use the Hide on this page setting. While on a page where you're entering names, right click on the page then select 1Password - Password Manager > Hide on this page. If there are a few pages where you enter names you can repeat the process there as well. 

    Alternatively, you could simply turn off autofill after signing into the genealogy website. You can do this from Settings > Autofill & save > Offer to save and fill logins and other items in the browser extension. This is of course a bit of a manual process, but would prevent any suggestions from popping up after you sign in and turn the setting off. 

    Let me know if either of those options work for you.
