The default shortcut for toggling 1Password in your browser is SHIFT+ ⌘+X. The new version of 1Password for your browser makes use of the keyboard shortcuts in a different way. I'll do my best to outline their functions here:

The previous version of 1Password for your browser (also known as the 1Password classic extension) made use of the ⌘+\ shortcut for two functions:

  1. If you have a single Login item saved for the site you are on ⌘+\ will autofill your credentials.
  2. If you have multiple Login items saved for the site you are on ⌘+\ will toggle the 1Password pop up and allow you to choose the Login you wish to fill.

The new version of 1Password for your browser will still support ⌘+\, however it is limited to autofilling credentials only if you have a single Login item saved for the site you are on. This shortcut is still defined in 1Password > Preferences > General.

When you have multiple items saved in 1Password for the site you are on you can either:

  1. Use SHIFT+⌘+X to toggle the extension and allow you to choose the Login you wish to fill. OR
  2. Use the the inline menu feature (the blue icon in the login field) to fill directly from the login form.

I hope this helps. Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions!
