Does anyone here use https://businessportal.one.nz/ ?

Since the rebrand to One NZ, my password manager (1Password) doesn't seem to work with the autofill option. Previously, with the VFNZ branding, I had no problems with my password manager.

I've noticed that autofill doesn't work well when the login box pops out of the main web page. Still works well when you use the browser extension to fill but automatically.

The experts here will tell you to turn off autofill and use a simple keyboard shortcut.

Copy the password from the manager. Delete the entry in the password manager. Log in to the site again, save the entry via the prompt. It'll be because the domain is different to what was previously associated with the identity, so it doesn't know it should use that identity for that new domain.

This is my preference. I don't want anything loaded to my browser. Figure if it can read the page and figure out the password, thats too much for me. I use keepassxc (or keepass at a push), and use global hotkeys for detecting things. it can be somewhat annoying as it can only interrogate the page title....not the url. So if (like so many) it just creates a page with teh title "login" then it tends to trigger a bunch of potential passwords that can be entered.

But on the flip side, itunes, rdp sessions, steam, ssh sessions and other applications, keepass can autotype those as well. Not just browser based.

YMMV

Since you're using 1Password, just edit the password entry to add the new domain. No need to delete and re-create the entry. (As a side note, you can associate the same login with multiple domains in the same way.)

One advantage of being able to read the URL is that your password manager won't ever suggest passwords on a phishing website (i.e. if it's suggesting a password, then the page URL matches that password's URL). Personally, given 1Password's a reputable company and the desktop client has my credentials anyway, having access to the pages I have open is an acceptable trade off to me, but given the vulnerabilities that have been found in some password manager extensions, having a different opinion on that doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Sorry, but the URL did stay the same. 1Password did show the saved value, it just failed to populate the fields. This started happening after the branding change from VFNZ (red) to 1NZ (green).

Looks, it's nothing serious. Was more wondering if it's something on my side that broke or on the VFNZ/1NZ side.

Personally, I don't see much difference between a keyboard shortcut & auto-fill.

Bitwarden as a standalone app, or is it operating via browser plugin? My main objection is loading an external (how well verified is it?) component into the browser for this purpose.

So it worked previously as businessportal.one.nz? Or businessportal.vodafone.co.nz? Because the screenshot you provided is not the original Vodafone domain but the new one...
