Trying to update a password, but the site doesn't like the passwords 1password generates. So I try to enter one I make up myself. But 1password won't let me enter that; it just prompts with another...

3 years ago@David_Wall I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues updating your password on a website with 1Password.
Does this only happen with a specific website? If so, would you mind sharing the URL with me so I can do some testing on my end?
If you are using 1Password in the browser, you can customize the Password Generator settings to provide you with a password that meets the website's criteria with the following steps:
- Click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar.
- Click the symbol with three parallel lines inside a circle.
- Choose 'Password Generator'
- If you change the 'Type' to random password, memorable password or PIN Code you can configure what is included in the generated passwords. You can also toggle on 'Use as default for suggestions' to have 1Password always suggest passwords with the parameters you chose.
I hope that information was helpful, let me know if you have any questions.
