Most of the banks in Poland use this type of input. I would be really happy to see such a feature implemented. If not autofill then at least the indexed password option.
Really interested in this. Also, how are people currently storing these kinds of memorable words?
Most sites that I use ask for a password then they have this memorable word option instead of 2FA so I currently store the password as usual but then in the ânotesâ section store the associated memorable word but would at least like a proper way to store this kind of data so itâs at least masked if someone is watching over my shoulder.
Instead of saving it in the notes scroll further down to the CUSTOM FIELDS. Below âNew Custom Fieldâ select âHiddenâ, then click onto the + sign to the left of it. Add a name (this will stay visible) and then below the âmemorable wordâ which - after saving - will be masked like a password.
Amazing thanks
Almost every bank Iâve used has had this security measure, and whilst I agree that it is annoying and bad practice from the bank, I doubt it is going away any time soon and would love some sort of function that can allow the autofill of a specified character position. I tried custom fields but unfortunately it doesnât work as the custom field IDs are numbered as 1, 2 and 3 rather than the actual character positions that they are requesting (which changes each time).
Iâve just noticed that the view password feature in the Firefox extension now has an option to number each character. While this isnât auto-fill, it is super useful!
Iâm happy with the implemented solution.
I posted a workaround a couple of years ago that achieves this using Bitwarden:
Howdy
I searched, couldnât find anything exactly what Iâm after.
I have a medium-security site (I wouldnât necessarily do this on a high security site like banking) that has a security code/PIN (numerical only) in addition to the standard password.
When you login, it then asks for certain digits from this PIN. Ie, today itâll want digit 1, 4, 6. Tomorrow itâll want 2, 4, 5.
Is there a way bitwarden could handle this elegantly? Iâm thinking define a âsecurity PINâ field type. Then identify (in a similar way to identifying user/password fields) that its asking for this, and either just automagically fill, or create a little popup for the user to type in which digit the site wants. and then fill this.
Would anyone else find this really useful?
If each digit is in a seperate field and the fields are named PIN_1 PIN_2 etc then it might be possible with custom fields.
Can you say which site so community members can inspect it?
@ewanmclean Welcome to the forum!
Probably the easiest solution is to define a custom hidden field to hold your âstandardâ password, and then use the Password field to store your PIN. That will allow you to use the button to display the position index of each digit in your PIN. To reveal the the button, first toggle the visibility of the Password field (which is now holding your PIN) using the button.
Edit: Since your feature request is specifically proposing an auto-fill functionality, I am merging your thread with an existing feature request.
Just found out Bitwarden does have the ability to see the character index for your passwords see here
- Click show password
- Click toggle character count (the 1.2.3 icon)
Unfortunately, if you click it doesnât copy to clipboard but its still nice to know it exists. I wish there was some documentation about this featureâŚ
