I upgraded to 1Password 8 yesterday. Since upgrading extensions in Firefox and chrome not working.

I uninstalled and reinstalled extensions to no avail. I closed 1Password and restated 1password to no avail. I use a windows computer. Both Firefox and chrome are updated to the latest version. Also when I sign into 1Password a large box comes up with all my logins unlike the previous version where a small popup would come up with the logins. Once I click on a login to use another box comes up with the login info then I have to click on the website then click on open and fill then I have to copy and paste user name and password. This is tedious and unnecessary. I want version 7 back which worked with one click and went to the desired website and filled info with additional steps.

    @mgjd771 , 1password8 is dumbed down and they are forcing you to use the "1 password in browser" add on now. I've had to down grade back to 1password 7 as I run multiple browsers in both windows and Mac and unlocking 1password each browser and still have to use the desktop app, (so like 6-11 unlocks) everytime I login is is a very big inconvenience. Not to mention I work a lot offline. Also when working on a web site I'm building and testing on offline systems to ensure nothing accidentally gets made public, the "In browser" plugin can't update or login to fetch your stuff or upload new stuff so it can be used in a different browser. Again this is an example of Shortcuts being taken because people want to rush the newest thing out the door... normally the result of a numbers manager and not a engineering manager (Less programming = more $$$). If they don't add it the support for the "desktop app required" plugin back, I'll be forced to stop using 1password and migrate to something else after 10+years of being a loyal 1password user. :(
