Solved Feature to manually add passwords for websites

Hadden89

@datdinhquoc Is not well exposed yet, but you should manage to edit your passwords in the chromium interface at the moment following this link: chrome://settings/passwords/check?start=true but still don't allow to add them (could be a chromium limitation, so it is resonable to ask even on their tracker).

By the way, I'll upvote the request as I like to do these things within the Vivaldi Interface :3

@hadden89 i don't see it editable, only 'Copy', 'Details', 'Remove'. The UI should allow adding.

Hadden89

@datdinhquoc Can confirm that. I edited the previous post to add such info.
Is not implemented at all in chromium, it seems.
I see edit probably as I have some weak password but we should wait someone else to confim this or not.
(Chromium UI is unexplicable, sometimes).

Works for me on 4.1 Stable: Open chrome://settings/passwords , hit the 3-dots-button and select Edit Password, on Windows i typed the Windows account password to unlock the login database and could edit fields.

@doctorg I believe what's at stake here is when you don't even have an entry in the passwords list to be able to Edit it. Adding a brand new entry is not possible...

That is not implemented in Chromium core.

DoctorG

But user can create a CSV file and import it. OK, strange workaround. Sorry.

How can I?
Can't find the import button
@doctorg

DoctorG

@energizzer Open vivaldi://flags/#password-import
Enable flag
Restart
Open chrome://settings/passwords
At right of "Saved Passwords" open 3-dot-menu

DoctorG

@datdinhquoc You can edit a existing password at this time (Chromium 96 core). Check it.

Enable vivaldi://flags/#add-passwords-in-settings
Then use chrome://settings/passwords to manually add passwords.

//MODEDIT: fixed URL, marking this post as "solution" as a temporary workaround for this request

@buggered said in Feature to manually add passwords for websites:

vivaldi://settings/passwords

User needs chrome://settings/passwords to reach internal page

@buggered said in Feature to manually add passwords for websites:

Enable vivaldi://flags/#add-passwords-in-settings

Yes, after enabling this flag, adding works in internal Chromium page.

Für unsere deutschen Nutzer hab ich heute ein kleines How-to "In Vivaldi Logindaten und Passwörter ändern oder hinzufügen" gefunden.

I apologise for my german post.

@DoctorG as of today, this options isn't there.

Why in the hell is this marked as "solved" when the requester was obviously asking for a GUI interface, not some backasswards flag or CSV importing? Stupid decisions like this are enough to make me leave a browser in the dust. Is this going to be addressed or not?

Hi, with 7 user votes in 3 Years no.

When a dev has too much spare time, perhaps. But with few users a feature request will not be recognised as very important.

chrome://settings/passwords

The workaround and such seems unnecessary to me, or at least I didn't need to do it. I simply went to: vivaldi://password-manager/passwords
Right there on the top right was an "Add" button. Even let me add notes to saved logins.

DoctorG

@Noxvis Yes, a easy way is to use internal password manager page with these URL
vivaldi://password-manager/passwords
chrome://password-manager/passwords

Known issue: adding a URL does not work for hostnames without a TLD.
