Can i add Email field to every pw record?

[ccm]

Almost every password record i want to put in a password.

Say I have a Honda forum and associated with it is a email. It does not use the email to login but still there is a email associated with it. Currently I put this in notes. But Can I not have a default template that automatically upon creation of a new login have a field for email address associated with this login. I know I can add one after the fact by creating a new field and renaming it, but cant I have a template that just adds it.

And further, and most likly not available can i add a email field to all my existing passwords. As I say almost every password i use has an email associated with it. many are different emails.

Thank you.

There is a relevant feature request (which you can vote for), here:

Customizable vault item templates

This might look similar to post Additional item types (pre-defined), but: It would be very nice, if i could build my own templates (predefined item types) myself. so everyone is capable of putting those fields into his templates he needs. You will never find templates that fits for everyone in every country. So it might be the best way to let the user do this work. This might be a lot of work for the programmers, but today I have to put my custom fields again and again into every entry (since …

In the meantime, the work-around is to create an empty login item to serve as a template (adding the custom email field there):

When you want to create a new login item, simply search for this template item (or mark it as a “Favorite” to make this even easier), then click the “More Options” icon ( in screenshot below) and select “Clone” ( in screenshot):

You will then be able to rename the item (which by default is going to be named “.LoginTemplate - Clone”, if your template was named “.LoginTemplate”), and add all of the login information (including the email address).

You could potentially accomplish this by exporting your vault, processing the exported file, then purging your vault contents and re-importing the updated file.

This will be easiest if your vault contains no file attachments, passkeys, card items, identity items, any custom fields that are not plain text fields, or any customizations to URI match detection rules or Autofill on Page Load settings for individual items.
