How to Enable Chrome's Password Save Prompt for a Specific Site

Introduction

In this article, we'll discuss how to enable Chrome's password save prompt for a specific website. This is useful when you've previously declined the password save prompt for a site but later changed your mind and want to enable password storage.

Chrome's Password Save Feature

Google Chrome offers a built-in password manager that can save and auto-fill passwords for different sites. This feature can be very convenient, but sometimes it doesn't work as expected.

How Chrome's Password Save Prompt Works

When you log in to a website for the first time, Chrome will display a password save prompt, asking if you want to store the username and password for that site. If you click "Never" by mistake or decide not to save the password for security reasons, Chrome won't ask again for that site.

Enabling Chrome's Password Save Prompt for a Specific Site

If you want to enable Chrome's password save prompt for a specific site after previously declining it, follow these steps:

1. Visit the site for which you want to enable the password save prompt.
2. Log in with your username and password.
3. Right-click on the password field and select "Inspect" to open the Developer Tools panel.
4. In the "Elements" tab, locate the input tag for the password field.
5. Add the autocomplete attribute with a value of "new-password" to the input tag.

   <input type="password" name="password" autocomplete="new-password" />

6. Save the changes and refresh the webpage.
7. Log in again, and Chrome should now display the password save prompt.

Chrome's password save and auto-fill feature can be very convenient, but sometimes it may not work as expected. If you previously declined the password save prompt for a site and later changed your mind, you can enable it by modifying the autocomplete attribute of the password field using the Developer Tools panel.
