Bookends Browser misremembering password

Hi,

For my university's off-site login, I have the setting checked in Preferences to remember the password (save login to Keychain), but each time I restart Bookends the incorrect password is auto-filled.

In Safari, for the same URL, the correct password is auto-filled.

Is there something I can do to correct this?

Many thanks,

Phil

No. Bookends uses its own tricks to try to file/fill in the password (there is no system API for this). It works fairly well, but not for all web sites.

Thanks for the reply. What confounds me is that I do get an auto-filled password, just not the correct one. Too bad I cannot somehow force Bookends to use the correct one.
