Strongbox: Strange behavior of “can’t find entry screen”

Created on 21 Apr 2020  Â·  8Comments  Â·  Source: strongbox-password-safe/Strongbox

Hi mark ,

today I tried to create new credentials for the website (pedelecforum.de) .
I created them over the popup menu (auto fill) over the iOS keyboard .

In the First screen the strongbox extension recognize the site title correct . But can’t find any entry .
Until now all is correct .

I have clicked on “create new entry” . In the following screen the Site title is different .
while a step back the title was recognized correctly.

Do you see this behavior as a bug from the auto fill extension or only an specific issue with this site ?

Is the issue you are raising that the Title is "Www"?

Is the issue you are raising that the Title is "Www"?

Yes . instead WWW , i think there should be the same title as the screen before .

Right ?

Yeah, interesting, Strongbox is trying to be smart here but fails. Splits the host up on . and takes the first element (www)...

Minor but worth fixing.

Should be fixed for you now @F3000 with 1.49.5 - can you verify and close

Hey ,

look at this video :

The page title is : mediengruppe

But strongbox is taking "Intranet" as the name for the new entry .

Intranet is the first part of the URL . So I think he extracted this from the url

Yeah, it's pretty difficult actually to get what the title should be from a URL alone. There's no good way! I think there's not much more can done here. It's a best effort thing.

Sorry please ignore my comment above .

I have now revived the 1.49.5 update in the German store .

Now it works fine 👌

Many thanks

Excellent news! Thanks @F3000 - Closing out...
