Jellyfin-web: Login page inputs missing autofill attributes

Created on 20 Jan 2019  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: jellyfin/jellyfin-web

Describe the bug
On a Jellyfin server login page, the password field incorrectly prompts Safari on iOS and MacOS to suggest new generated passwords rather than suggesting saved passwords. The user field should contain the HTML attribute autocomplete="username" and the password field should contain autocomplete="current-password".

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to login page for a Jellyfin server
  2. Click on password field
  3. Safari recommends a new generated password

Expected behavior
When selecting user field on login page, browser suggests stored user/password combos if applicable.

Umm … bump?

This is somewhat annoying. It's quite the dance to get Safari to enter the credentials it has saved in Keychain. For some reason, it really wants to generate a new password.

Ah okay. I didn’t see this because I had iCloud Keychain turned off in favour of another password manager. Moving to web, where this can be fixed.
