Opera password storing functions are not-working easy with myworkdayjobs.com platform and other career platforms with subdomains.

When a new password is added because I filled my profile in a new website managed by the same main domain, in this case myworkdayjobs, it will be added to a previous entry related to another company.

Once this is done, the password for the other company is changed and lost.

It is also not possible to edit that entry and remove one address from it.
The entire password entry has to be deleted and created again by hand.

This example is just with 2 companies, as I have already deleted another one with about 7.

@diegoj Does it work in other Chromium based browsers?

@leocg I have a long time not using other browsers. However I believe that they don't share password management system, but only the rendering stuff.

@diegoj They use Chromium passwords manager. So the idea was to check if it's a Chromium issue or just an Opera one

@leocg Ok, so this means that it won't be solved any time soon, right?

@diegoj It may depends if it's a Chromium issue or not.

@leocg Thanks Leo.
I won't dive into it much more, but it is really annoying.
Actually is the best example of use to store low-risky passwords that I don't need to remember.
Opera sadly doesn't provide a way to 'edit' the pages associated to that password entry into multiple ones. Therefore, I can not even manually fix it, but just delete it or ignore it.

@diegoj In opera://password-manager/passwords, you can add passwords manually for a page by clicking on Add.

@leocg Yeah. I can not edit or change the wrong ones with wrong links. Just delete, as said.

@diegoj if you do that, the problem still happens?

@leocg If I delete and manually add individual entries for each website, a painful job, the problem at the 2nd image persist, where the wrong password entries is being picked up, due to the same domain address. As in the example of Philips and ThermoFisher above.

@diegoj Right, so I guess you will need to wait for Chromium to adapt the password manager to work with that kind of pages.

Anyway, you can report the issue to Chromium and Opera, so they can do something about it.
