iCloud Keychain/Safari autofill doesn't save Macrumors.com passwords!

iCloud keychain doesn't auto fill on safari forms?

i agreed to let it us its suggested password, but when i went to log in to that same site again, it asked for the password but autofill didnt fill it in. how do you find the password to copy/paste it? shouldn't it work with autofill? odd

its in safari/preferences/autofill

find it in safari/preferences/autofill

It is not showing there and I changed the password now to a new one that was suggested to me...

edit: It works if you do it on your iOS device.

Same here, (stupidly) tested on my Reddit with the suggested password, tried logging back in but no autofill and when i check prefs > passwords all my sites say never saved.

thanks, iOS trick worked for me as well!

SOLVED!!
Don't know what the glitch is but if you login from your iOS, it saves to iCloud Keychain and works from your mac!

Many thanks rikscha!

So... not so much a "SOLVED!!" as it is a "WORK AROUND!!"

What I did was to put in my login and password, but I did NOT login - instead I refreshed the page and then it worked. Another work around and not a real fix. It works for other pages too, that won't work the "normal" way to save logins.

Thank you #. Works for me also.

Seems like a common problem with most vbulletin boards.

Still a problem. On the change password screen iCloud keychain suggests a password but doesn't save it.

I found it was saving it under my email instead of user name. So I somehow got it to enter the right password, but I have to change the user name after it fills in the password.
