How to enable single vault for autofill, but all vaults for searching?

Hey theremin ,
Thanks for the detailed response!

but who are the users who are disabling certain vaults just from the extension search? What is the use case there?

Users who have a lot of vaults. :)
Especially professional users, or users who are a part of a team/business account, or simply users that like to be extremely organised.

For example, I have 4 different 1Password accounts in my extension - a personal account, a work account, a teams account and a test account.
In every account I have ~5 vaults or so. It is oh so helpful to be able to select in which vault(s) I want to conduct a search.

The important bit here for novice users is that the search filter is being reset every time you relaunch the browser, so even if a user accidentally selects a specific vault to search in, the next time they open their browsers it will be reset back to "All Vaults" and they will have access to all of their logins again. Granted, some more advanced users don't like that either and ask us to keep their selection regardless of the current session and new sessions, but that is currently the best way we've found to prevent novice users from getting lost.

The autofill dropdown is the problematic pain point here, because there's no way to filter those suggestions.

Two points of interest here:
- In our previous update, we've accidentally limited the dropdown suggestions to 20 results. We've got a slew of reports from users asking us to fix it! Apparently users need all of their suggestions in the dropdown (we're talking about 50-100 suggestions or more!).
- You CAN filter those suggestions! simply start typing the title of the login you need or the username of the login you need in the username field on the website you're on and it will filter the dropdown suggestions as you type! :)

The whole reason I want to be able to control which vaults display in the autofill dropdown is because 1Password X stopped respecting the "Never display in the browser" checkbox in the first place. When I (and others) lamented the loss of this feature in the 1Password forums, we were told to move the items we didn't want to see on a daily basis to a secondary "Archive" vault. But it's just not the same. There is seemingly no way to create an item in my vaults that I can instantly and easily find by searching for it (without futzing with enabling/disabling vaults) but also not have to see on a daily basis in the autofill dropdown.

So here's the real issue, and I'm glad we've managed to reach it.
The "Never display in browser" option is a setting that belongs to the desktop app and therefor is not applicable to 1Password in the browser (formerly known as 1Password X). The suggestions we gave previously about moving selected items to a vault that will be turned off in the extension still stands, but there is another way that you might like better.
Simply edit the login items you do not want to show up in autofill suggestions and remove the website's URL from them. Without a website URL, 1Password won't know to which website they belong and won't suggest them anywhere. They will still be accessible via search and you will be able to copy-paste or drag and drop the credentials into the webpage to fill it out.

We do have an open feature request to add a "Do not display in browser" option so I will definitely add your voice there.
Thank you again for taking the time to discuss this. Very much appreciated and your feedback is very helpful. :+1:
