  • "Suggest strong password" feature does not fill in the repeat password field

  • BugsDesktopPlanned

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to https://console.cron-job.org/signup
  2. Fill in the name and email fields and tab into the first password field
  3. Orion suggests a strong password in the password field; click "Use Strong Password"
  4. Tab into the repeat password field
  5. There seems to be no way to enter the same password in that field

Expected behavior:
Both fields should be filled in, or I should be able to copy/paste the password.

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
Orion 0.99.116-beta, macOS 12.4 (21F79), MacBook Air (M1, 2020)

    It just happens to me a moment ago this issue has been going on for a while now. And some sites I have given up sign up too. And this is a really frustrating issues. Since I use it a lot.

      StefanoL246 This is not easy to do, as there is no standard that defines that something on a page is a 'repeat password' field.

      Vlad That sounds like it could take a while to implement. In the meantime, maybe you could allow the user to copy/paste the generated password? Or even pop up a button to auto fill it in any other field. This would make the password suggestion feature useable until the full fix is implemented, and could also fill any gaps in the heuristics that you eventually implement.

      EDIT: I was able to copy/paste the password by using the form's 'Show Password' button and copying it.
