Upgrade to Version 8 -- many functions no longer work
I have not been able to properly use 1P anymore.
- Show stopper issue: when I try to create a new login, when I click on the suggested password, I get a strange screen blocking any further action.
This means this function does not work. So I have to take manual steps to work around it.
- Annoyance issue: once again the password generator has been moved somewhere I cannot find. Sometimes I want to generate a password not while creating a login. So I want to be able to access the generator directly. Where is it?
- There are sites where I just cannot get 1P to work. http://www.balticnetworks.com wanted me to confirm my login. Could not get 1P to work with that function on that site.
- I previously and for over 10 years have had the 1P lock function set to 120 minutes, which is a good compromise for me. That is no longer supported and I have to choose between 1 hour and 4 hours.
- I want to fill out the "1Password Extension Versions" below. I click on the link to "find extension version". I get a page telling me how to keep 1P up to date.
- Shortly after posting the above, I needed to create a new login. 1P is not working. On the email address, the the confirmation email address and the password, 1P offers a pull down, but the items cannot be selected. The system just does not respond. Following is an example.
Bottom line: Version 8 is broken so badly as to be non-functional for me. Is it possible to downgrade back to Version 7?
1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 10.15.7

I opened this topic five days ago. Normally I get a response before this point. I conclude that due to the many problems with this release your staff is getting hammered.
I am including here another screen shot to show what happens when the 1P extension for Safari is accessed:
1P is now asking for the password to unlock on every use. If I unlock it, and click a 1P function, such as the 1P icon in a password entry field, it again asks. It is in permanent "ask for password on every use" mode.
PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DOWNGRADE FROM THIS ALPHA VERSION BACK TO VERSION 7!!!
I complained above about no longer having the 120 timeout for locking 1P.
That complaint is slightly misplaced, because setting it to 4 hours does not work either. I find I very often have to enter my password to unlock.
Very many other rough spots that I have not documented yet. Here are some off the top of my head:
1. When unlocking there is often a pause for 5-10 seconds before it actually unlocks.
2. When clicking on the icon in a login field, often nothing happens.
3. When a login pulldown should offer choices, often nothing happens. Sometimes it fixes if you refresh the page.PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DOWNGRADE FROM THIS ALPHA VERSION BACK TO VERSION 7!!!
Here is another case of a website that just does not work:
