How to Save Sign In details for 1 website only?

Post by mrwul »

I would like to have:
a. Firefox to save 1/one log in/sign in entry only, viz. my Google account, within Firefox -> Options -> Security -> Log Ins
b. Firefox to autofill that, when I click on 'Sign in' on the Google home page
c. to use another password manager to log in to other sites/forums
d. Firefox stop 'asking' whether or not to save passwords for other sites.

Reason for this is that due to the introduction of webextension, my password manager (Roboform) can not autofill the Google Sign In fields.
Roboform developers are aware of this and seem to be working on it. Not sure whether they will find a solution for it though.


I can solve this issue by disabling javascript in About:config (Javascript Enabled=False)
In which case Roboform will autofill the Google Sign In details, without problems, like previously.
However, then again other matters may not work properly anymore - such as upload files button on websites.

When Javascript is enabled autofill by Roboform does not work anymore.

The only workaround I found is to :
- save the Google Sign In user-id/pw within Firefox passwords (password protected of course)
- use that to sign in

But, I don't want to use the Firefox password manager for any other site, instead I will use Roboform.
So I don't want this Firefox pop-up each and every time.

Any ideas?

Hi mrwul,

You could try the add-on YesScript to disable JavaScript for that site only (wouldn't go for NoScript in this case).

Later . . .
Except there is an issue with disquss
when viewing disqus comments (often at the bottom of reviews) I get an error : "Disqus seems to be taking longer than usual. Reload?"
even when accessing the disqus homepage I get an error: "Sorry, your browser is unsupported. "

Need to disable YesScript - restart Firefox and then disqus matters are properly displayed.
But obviously my password manager (autofill) doesn't work, i.e. I have to enter the password manually.
All this because of the introduction of webextensions (starting with FF v57)
Webextensions lead to a problem, a solution (YesScript), leads to another one...

Currently there is no fix.

Sigh...
