Summary

  • Removed autocomplete="new-password" from the password confirmation field in the registration form
  • Password managers now autofill both password fields when filling credentials
  • Aligns behavior with industry standard practice on major websites

Technical Details

The primary password field retains autocomplete="new-password" to indicate where password managers should save/generate passwords. The confirmation field now has no autocomplete attribute, allowing password managers to infer it should match the primary password field.

Test plan

  • Test with Chrome's password manager: generate a new password and verify both fields are filled
  • Test with Firefox's password manager: generate a new password and verify both fields are filled
  • Test with 1Password/LastPass: verify autofill works for both fields
  • Verify password validation still works correctly

…ual autofill

Password managers autofill both password fields when the confirmation field doesn't have autocomplete="new-password". This matches standard behavior on most websites.
