#3 Password field don't filling
Hello, Alex! I really like your plugin, it is very useful. But it stopped working from one of the recent KeePass versions. When I'm adding a placeholder {PASSWORDBOX} to the auto-type sequence (e.g. '{CLEARFIELD}{UserName}{ENTER}{DELAY 1500}{Password}{PASSWORDBOX}') and trying to logon on page containing password field only, there's nothing happens. The password field stays empty. Please, fix it.
I have checked with KeePass 2.41 and it still works fine. For your sequence, placing {PasswordBox} at the end will have no effect - you want it to go immediately before the password is auto-typed, not after it. So your example would be: "{CLEARFIELD}{UserName}{ENTER}{DELAY 1500}{PASSWORDBOX}{Password}"
If it is still not working for you, please try without the {PASSWORDBOX} placeholder, and verify that it does auto-type correctly normally. If not, then there is some other unrelated issue.
Yes, I've placed {Password Box} at the end by mistake. But the sequence "{CLEARFIELD}{UserName}{ENTER}{DELAY 1500}{PASSWORDBOX}{Password}" also working wrong - it fills the password field with a username.
The sequence "{CLEARFIELD}{UserName}{ENTER}{DELAY 1500}{Password}" works well. May be the reason is that the site using two-step autorization. If the previous autorization was successful, it ask only password.
The {PasswordBox} won't prevent you from filling the password box with something that doesn't belong there, it can only prevent you typing the password into something that isn't a password box.
For your situation, where the username may or may not be visible, I think you will have to go with two sequences, a username one and a password only one, and pick between the two. To do it automatically you would need some sort of NotPasswordBox functionality, which this plugin does not provide.
Oh, it seems that I misunderstood the purpose of your plugin. The behavior I need is to start the auto-type sequence from {Password} placeholder when the password field has a focus. I don't know if it possible technically, but it would be a great feature of this or new plugin.
It might not be exactly what you are looking for, but WebAutoType has an option to skip "{username}{tab}", if that's the start of the default sequence, and autotype happens in a password box. Otherwise, I think it would need to be a new, different plugin.
Thank you, I've already installed and use it, Also I've found AlternateAutoType, that is allow to autotype the password only by a hotkey. Anyway, it's better than nothing. But I'll be waiting for someone creating new plugin for my purpose.
