Precise URL Matching

Mark Sealey

Thanks; have taken a closer look at the actual URLs in question, but can't see any way to be more precise - so, when [i]1P[/i] parses, it privileges all cases of [b].pair.com[/b] equally:



https://webmail1.pair.com

https://webmail2.pair.com

https://webmail3.pair.com

…

and so on down to:



https://webmail10.pair.com

https://webmail11.pair.com

https://webmail12.pair.com



Any ideas, please; my logins are all entered separately?



TIA!

Unfortunately, if those are the actual URLs, it may not work out very well. Each one that I clicked redirected to the exact same URL:



https://sm.webmail.pair.com/src/login.php



There is not really a way to tell 1Password to [i]sometimes[/i] offer one login and [i]sometimes[/i] offer another for the [b]same[/b] URL. Please let me know if I have misunderstood.



If the URLs do indeed have different subdomains (after any and all redirects), 1Password should treat them as separate logins.

Mark Sealey

Khad,



Thanks; No, you've understood perfectly.



I considered only keeping https://sm.webmail.pair.com/src/login.php in [i]1P[/i] and making the same assumption as you did. But I'd like to have a record of what would be required if ever I needed to go to a webmailn.pair.com (which used to be the case). I could keep that in the Notes field.

I don't believe they do.

There is certainly no harm in keeping the URLs saved in 1Password as you have them. If Pair ever changes the system on their end to remove the redirect, you will be all set to take advantage of precise URL matching! Until then, either URL will work, so you might as well take the path of least resistance. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' />

Knowing that folks are not only satisfied but downright happy with 1Password makes my day.

htmljenn

I have several domains where various areas of the site/domain have different passwords. 1Password does fine at storing them, but when it does a password lookup it almost never gets the right one and I have to choose from the drop-down of additional passwords.



For example:



I have a password of "a" set to the URL http://www.example.com/area 1/

I have a password of "b" set to the URL http://www.example.com/area 2/



When I go to area 2 1Password suggests I use the password for area 1 because as far as I can tell that was the first password I added to 1P for this domain.



It would be very convenient if there was a way to tell 1P to look at the FULL URL and not just the domain when suggesting which password to use.



Thanks,

khad

Hey, htmljenn! I have merged your post with the appropriate thread. Please see above and let me know if you have any additional questions. I will mention that [url="http://files.droplr.com/files/5916362/iT9Z.Screen%20shot%202011-03-12%20at%201.07.42%20AM.png"]HTTP Auth prompts[/url] do not currently support precise URL matching. Is the site you are having trouble with using basic access authentication (HTTP Auth)?

Schmoe0013

subdomain1.domain.com

subdomain2.domain.com

subdomain3.domain.com



having passwords saved for all 3, list all 3 when on any of these domains.



Is it possible for an enhancement request to filter out subdomains as well when identifying logins? I imagine there are other scenarios where this could prevent the login from showing.



Thanks.

Hi Schmoe,



I merged your thread into this one. Please give it a lookover as many have requested the same thing.



Make sure you edit the URLs for each Login to be more specific, they shouldn’t have just “domain.com”. Leaving all three pointing to “domain.com” will make 1Password show you all three for each site. So, when you edit the Login’s URL to “subdomain1.domain.com”, it should only show you one Login.



I hope that helps.

Hi! Do I have any control over how the logins for a specific sites are split into "Fill Login" / "Other logins" menu? It is very annoying when I have, say, 5 logins (which I have to switch often), and "Fill login" has 3 and "Other logins" has the other 2. Ideally, can all my logins be available right on top of menu when I click my "1P" browser button? That would save me many seconds each day. Thanks!

khad

Welcome to the forums, vladstudio. I have merged your post with the appropriate thread. It's a long one, but if you start at the beginning, the answer is in the first few posts. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />



The quick answer is that setting the URL for the login you wish to be the "primary" to the full and precise login page URL will achieve this. Set your other logins for the same domain to only the domain.



For example:



[code]Primary: http://www.example.com/login/page

Secondary: http://www.example.com/

Tertiary: http://www.example.com/

More: http://www.example.com/

[/code]

So if you are logging in at the primary URL, all the other logins will be shown in the "Other Logins" submenu.



Now, keep in mind that this will break Go & Fill if the login form is not available on the home page, but perhaps you can find a happy medium, depending on the site and its URL hierarchy. Understanding precise URL matching is the key to unlocking your success here, though. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_bigsmile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-D' />



I hope that helps. Please let me know.

I have multiple logins to certain sites, and for some reason when I use the keyboard shortcut, instead of popping up the list of logins to choose from, it just logs in as the first one in the list. I can't find any explanation for this behavior, and it seems to have only recently started doing it.



Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?

khad

Please ensure that the logins are all using precisely the same URL and let me know if that helps. You can edit the items and copy/paste the URL from one to the other(s).

I have three Paypal accounts. They all appear in the Safari drop-down, but in an order I'd like to change (see attached Screen Shot).



Is there a way to get one particular account to show up as the top Fill & Submit one, instead of in the lower one with the drop-down menu selections? I've tried adding an X to the front of the name (to force the hierarchy), but no dice.

khad

I think I have just the solution! Please see [url="http://forum.agile.ws/index.php?/topic/3967-precise-url-matching/page__view__findpost__p__13787"]my first post in this thread[/url].



That should get you going, but please let me know if I did not answer your question clearly enough in that post. I would be happy to further expound on it. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

Hi.



When I use the 1password shortcut (Cmd + #) in a webpage that has several logins saved it sometimes doesn't show me all available logins, but chooses one and just fills that in.

I can use the 1password Button to see the other logins, but I was wondering how 1password chooses, which login is the "preferred" login and if I can disable this - so I always get the selection of all logins?



I use 1password 3.5.6, Firefox4 and Snow Leopard (but I have the same issue with other browsers too)



thanks for the help,

Sean.

I have multiple logins for may sites and would like to disable the "Other Login" drop-down menu item and just have them all show up together. Is that possible?

Thx

khad

Welcome to the forums, Shakes.



Please set all the logins to the exact same URL. Copy it from the "main" login and paste it into the others for that same site.



I hope that helps. Please let me know.



Thanks!

Is there a plan to make the handling of google apps accounts less onerous? Perhaps a preference setting for the list of domains that shouldn't use precise URL matching? ... or, better yet, making that an option on the login setting for a particular login entry. Hiding it in the application is not exactly friendly.



Hmm. Maybe a better way to handle the "multiple logins with the same credentials" issue is to allow the user to decide ....



[list=1]

[*]allow a set of credentials to apply to more than one URL (I think you call that "aliasing")

[*]whenever an automatic login save is done *and* there is a domain match, *ask* if this should be a login alias ... if not, it should be a precise URL match

[*]for more advanced users, allow them to enter in a regex for the URL(s), and *we* will figure out the crazy login scheme that Google or Yahoo or some other multiservice is using.

[/list]

khad

I will pass your feedback along to the developers. We are already making some changes to precise URL matching the in latest betas and are only making more as we move forward.



We are looking at equivalent domains (aliasing) features, and all domains use precise URL matching (including [font="Menlo"]google.com[/font]) in the latest betas for consistency. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

How do I enable Precise URL matching, I cant get it to work at all.



For example, I have the following URLs (11 of them to be precise), which ALL show when I am on each page:



http://www.mydomain.co.uk/1234/

http://www.mydomain.co.uk/5678/

http://www.mydomain.co.uk/abcd/

(plus 8 more!)



Thanks a lot

khad

Welcome to the forums, amityweb!



Are the URLs for each login already set as "precisely as possible"? Is it a Google domain? Google.com and a [i]very limited[/i] number of domains are included by default in the AvoidPreciseURLMatching.js file.



What version of 1Password, web browser, and OS are you using?

sculp7ur3

Is there any way to override the google exception on precise URL matching in the Windows version?

[Deleted User]

Hello sculp7ur3 and welcome to the Forums!



I'm sorry, but Windows does not support the modification of precise URL matching.
