Problem with password generator - Password Manager - Bitwarden Community Forums
October 11, 2024 - Default options don’t seem to save for me using the PC app. In fact, it defaults to a single hyphen (-) and i need to go through all the preferences, then refresh to get the new password. I’m 99% of the time doing this from the window where I’m creating a new item, but I just tested the generator on its own and the same thing happens.

It's broken for me on Chrome as well. I'm not going to reinstall it. I'll wait if they fix it with a patch. This will be a great test whether I should migrate my wife over. Releasing an update like this and then not fixing it instantly is unacceptable.

Password generator popup broken? - Password Manager - Bitwarden Community Forums
December 27, 2024 - Creating a new login or changing a password, an autocomplete popup appears giving you the option to use a newly generated random password. Select it, and it correctly fills the password and password confirmation fields, but it does not copy the password to the clipboard, it does not recognize that new login credentials have been generated, and doesn’t track the password in the password generator history, either.

Context menu password generation ignores parameters - Password Manager - Bitwarden Community Forums
November 12, 2024 - Hi there 🙂 First of all, the issue : When generating a new password using the context menu or the option that sometimes pop under a password field, the generated password uses the default parameters (password, 14 chars, etc.). I’ve been to the Bitwarden extension, clicked the Generator menu at the bottom, and changed the option for "passphrase, 4 word, cap words and addnumber).

Problems with generating and saving passwords - Password Manager - Bitwarden Community Forums
December 15, 2024 - The requested feature has been added; when changing or setting a password I am able to “autofill generated password” in the context menu when the field is focused. However, it’s unusable, because when submitting the autofilled password, it is not added to or updated in the corresponding saved login.

Two-Step Login Methods | Bitwarden
Two-step login via email is not recommended if you are using login with SSO, as using multiple methods will cause errors. Consider setting up two-step login via a free authenticator instead. Any option will work, though.

Hi!
Are there websites I can point my users to in order to help them with creating better passwords? I know Diceware is one but what else? I also just found SANS OUCH! Anything similar?
