Chrome autofill (user and password) sets password and email on user creation

Hi there!
If you enable on Chorme to save login and password info (to log into the backend page of the hotspot) and you try to create a new user on a domain the fields "Password" and "Email" will be automatically filled with the login info used at the backend web login process.
This will cause some inconvenience because it will not auto generate a password for example.

We tried this with Internet Explorer and the issues does not appear.

Hi Gerard,

Just make sure to disable Auto Save Password on Google Chrome browser.

Best Regards,

Hi,
With another browser it does not happen, maybe its an issue with the webpage (backend) and how Chrome stores the autofill data.
The client who discovered this only uses Chrome and needs to enable the password autofill feature.

Please, take a look if the field ID of user / password from the login from is the same as the ID of the password and email fields of the new user form.

Hi Gerard,

It's not something related to the HSNM but simply to the google chrome browser. The only thing that user can do
is to not use the auto save function.
