Not supported any more! This addon heavily relies on legacy features, which will no longer be supported by Firefox 57+ and there doesn't seem to be a way to port the functionality to WebExtensions. There is a final, untested build which might still work with Firefox 56.
The following firefox forks are known to still work with this plugin:
Extension for Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird. Replaces the default password managers storage with pass by implementing nsILoginManagerStorage.
The implementation is not complete and probably never will be. It is not possible to disable password saving for single domains.
Because pass-manager replaces the default password storage backend, it is compatible with plugins like Password Exporter.
- Install Password Exporter
- Export saved passwords
- Optionally delete all saved passwords
- Install pass-manager
- Import saved passwords
Switching back to the integrated storage engine works the other way around.
There are some options exposed via the about:config
interface. The scope
is extensions.passmanager.*
. For people using a command line password
manager, this should be sufficient :-)
Passwords are stored in the subfolder mozilla/PRODUCT/DOMAIN/passmanager###
by default. All other files in the three mozilla/PRODUCT/DOMAIN/
will be
parsed, too.
The field mapping can be configured via about:config. By enabling the fuzzy
option, missing hostname
, formSubmitURL
and httpRealm
fields will
be autocompleted with the values firefox expects. So the only required field
for a username/password login is username
. An entry like this would match
all protocols and forms for DOMAIN
on any port.
For password only logins, no additional fields are required.
