password options not showing in browser pop-over frame....

So 1P was locked. and I visited https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/139872 which did a pop-up prompting me to login. I already have a login for this site, but 1P icon in the username/password fields only prompted to "save password"

I unlocked 1P and tried again. No luck. But the browser extension icon does show the saved passwords for that same site.

So what happened? and is there a fix?

FYI, I cannot get the popup to reappear on refresh (cookie and/or IP address related?). So if you get it to popup, keep the browser window open to do experiments.

1Password Version: 8.4.1
Extension Version: 2.1.4
OS Version: win10 ltsc 1809 b17763.1935

browser extension

    Ok. @ag_ana

    I was able to reproduce it. But on a different page of the same site. You can go to any indicator or EA and attempt to download the code. if you are not logged in, it will prompt you to login. For example:

    https://www.mql5.com/en/code/37523

    you won't be logged in. Just click on the xxxxx.mq4 file link and and it will bring up the login popover.

    so 1p does not have any available passwords here.

    but the main 1p extension icon shows the already saved passwords for the mql5.com website

    maybe the box is pointing to a different url, so it's not showing up?? again, I don't know.

    mp4 is not allowed here for some reason (less than 0.5MB). So dropbox demo is here
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/gng1obry56f9i9s/1P-X%20not%20showing%20password%20mql4%20popover%20window.mp4?dl=0

    Edit: the extension icon-based login in the final screenshot points to
    https://www.mql5.com/en/auth_login

    if that helps. This is different than the popover. But with other sites that have a popover type of login alternative, there is no issue.

    @ag_ana
    I couldnt get to reproduce it with refreshing the tab or in a new private (incognito) browser window. I think it reads the old cookie and sees that i havent visited in a while (returning visiter); just guessing... Not entirely sure.

    I dont remember getting it all the time previously also.

    I might try closing the browser window and visiting again tomorrow or later tonight.

    4EverMaAT:

    I cannot get that popup to appear at all, I am always take to the separate login window. What did you do to get it to appear the first time? Did you click on the Log In link in the toolbar, or somewhere else?
