Hi, I found that recent update of Firefox is not compatible with multiple user accounts on the same server. The problem is that Firefox does not allow to store password for a certain page, but only for a server. Specifically, the problem I have now that the server www.editorialmanager.com is used by many different Journals (and I must have an access to more than 15 journals), but all require me to have the same login name (to be recognized as a special editor)! For logical reasons I do not want to have all passwords the same, but when I set a password for one journal, it overwrites all other passwords... The problem is that Firefox does not allow to store a password for a certain page, but only for a server.

Here is the example:

1 www.editorialmanager.com/ejmech login: my professional email passwd: 123

2 www.editorialmanager.com/bmchem login: my professional email passwd: overwritten to be the same - 123

3 www.editorialmanager.com/bmchem login: my professional email passwd: overwritten to be the same - 123

How to cope with this problem? Thank you for your help. Best, Vladimir

Do toho bych zapojil spíše autory Firefoxu. Tohle je jen podpora uživatel - uživatel.

Pokud to dříve fungovalo, možná by pomohl návrat k předešlé verzi Firefoxu. Odkaz ke stažení ti nedám, protože je tady v činnosti debil bot. Ale určitě si to najdeš sám.

PS: Aktualizace na verzi FF 82.0.2 by nepomohla?
