Re: [Unity-idm-discuss] Storing credentials in browser

[D B. <ba...@aw...>]

Hi,

I've solved my immediate issue by manually creating saved credentials in
Firefox (Preferences -> Privacy & Security) -> Saved Logins... -> Create
New Login)
It now prefills the login form like it should, so I'm suspecting it may
be something in my Firefox config that prevents saving passwords.

However, before that I've found some nice sources about optimising for
password managers, maybe they are useful to you:

https://hiddedevries.nl/en/blog/2018-01-13-making-password-managers-play-ball-with-your-login-form

https://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/form-styles-that-chromium-understands

I tried to test this out with the Inspect Element editor (adding various
features to the HTML live) but unity then complains about missing
inputs, so I guess I'd need to understand VAADIN and how the login forms
are rendered before testing any further.

Cheers,
D
