Automatic entry without application
It is also possible to enable the automatic entry of login data on websites without application.
•In order to be able to use the automatic entry without application function, it must firstly be activated under Edit -> General Settings -> Browser Addons.
In addition, you can also define a colour here to highlight those fields in which data has been entered. This is useful if you also use the entry with application function in parallel because the coloured markings directly indicate whether the data entry has been carried out with or without application.
•If you are using Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera or Safari, the relevant Addon must be installed and activated.
•Furthermore, a record must be created that contains both the user name and password, as well as the URL of the desired website. For example, if the login information is to be entered on Ebay, the relevant record needs to be saved under the Internet address www.ebay.de. You can find further information on this subject under notes.
As soon as the automatic entry without application function has been activated, Password Safe checks each time a website is accessed whether a record exists for the opened URL and whether a login mask exists on the website.
If both of these conditions are fulfilled, the user name and password are entered. The fields are correspondingly highlighted in colour. Now check whether the data has been entered in the correct fields and then click on the relevant button to log in.
•Subdomains are also taken into account when checking the URL. Therefore, if you have save a record under e.g. http://www.ebay.de then https://signin.ebay.de will also be recognised.
•if you have saved multiple records for a URL, the first record will always be entered. If you do not want this to be the case, the URL can be removed from those records that should not be used.
•In contrast to the entry with application function, no submit command is transferred. Therefore, you must carry out this step yourself by clicking on the login button. This ensures that you are still able to check the data that has been entered before logging in.
•If you have saved an application for a record, the entry with application function is preferred.
•The entry without application function has been consciously designed to be compact and simple in order to enable login data to be entered without the need for any difficult configuration steps. If it is not possible to automatically enter the login data for a website using this method or if there are problems on the website (e.g. if the data is entered in the wrong fields), please enter an application for this login.
•If you have multiple records for a website and want to select one of them before logging in, it is also necessary to create an application.
