Thanks for the suggestions. I will try them
For Home Depot, just use homedepot.com. This is a multi-step process where 1password works but just requires several steps.
Looks like treasury direct works better with 1password now. It didn't the last time I used the website.
Regarding Highmark.com, yes once I get to page, 1password will fill.
Regarding llbean.com et al., I agree that 1password works but I object to having to taking two steps when one should do. I know that you can't fix the problem but those websites probably aren't even aware of the number of people using password manager.
Your response points to the exact problem I was trying to raise. So many websites are not built to accommodate password managers. They'll be no reason to change these websites unless enough of us complain and explain what needs to be done. Hopefully, if you provide an open letter then enough 1password users will forward the letter. Maybe we can start to see some changes.
Until then, I suspect that websites will continue to come up with different login strategies and Agile will be trying to keep up. And, I wouldn't be surprised if more websites allow you to logon-in with your google or Facebook credentials. Think how scary that would be if one id unlocked each of the websites that an individual uses.
Just some perspective... My wife and I have 150 logins in 1password and used at least once per year. We also have 141 logins in a vault called "Rarely used logins."
I can travel almost anywhere in the world and use wifi from my smart phone, so why can't the web community set some standards for id/password creation and login procedures that are compatible with password managers? In fact, why not provide open-source routines in web development languages that are routinely tested by the development community? I know you can't answer these questions.
