Sometimes the password manager will not record the username, but just the password. Any way to insert the username, or force the manager to record it? I have experimented with this and cant get it to record the username.

It happens on maybe 5% of my password sites. Cant get any of them to work right. They are all different types of sites.

Thanks

You might wanna try the "Saved Password Editor" found on the add-ons page. I find it rather usefull myself.

P.S: Sorry I don't have the web-address on top of my head right now, but you can search for it by going to the Add-ons Manager - Tools > Add-ons - and type in "Saved Password Editor" in the search bar. D.S

"Saved Password Editor" is here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/

Also, update to Firefox 38. It includes a new feature that forces websites that turn off password autocomplete to work.

Thanks to all,

"Saved Password Editor" works great.

Upgrading to 38 later today.
