Log in feature - Save password in Chrome #166

Open rahensonzam opened 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Other people who use the log feature do it by using the "username" and "password" fields and prefer it that way (as opposed to pasting lines in the "combo box"). They like that Chrome offers a list of previous entries for "username" when they start typing and then they pick one (autofill, i think). However, password boxes are excluded from autofill, and also even if it had autofill it would not be linked to the "username" entry.

Describe the solution you'd like To have Chrome recognise the username and password fields as a username/password pair and offer to save the password. See screenshot.

Describe alternatives you've considered There are other possibilities, but this seems to the recommended way and keeping in the same workflow.

Additional context login chrome save password

Chrome doesn't support saving passwords in extensions.

@rahensonzam Would storing the usernames and passwords within the extension work just as well?

Unmerged, just related to #4.

From siphomateke:

"I think the best solution is to add the ability to store lists of clients that can be used throughout the extensions for different things. So each user of the extension could have a list for clients they login to, a list for clients they get pending liabilities from, etc. Then everywhere you can input clients you can choose from a dropdown a preset client list and also choose a default for that section."
