Description

At some point in the last year, IIRC, the login process was changed to have two steps, first you enter your username, then move to a second screen where you enter your password.

Unfortunately, for anyone using a password manager, this system does not work. They do not recognize the form with the password input because they are looking for the an editable field with the username, not a stantic field.

Breaking password managers is a Very Bad Idea, and this should really be fixed. It defniitely fails with Safari's systems, as well as 1password.

Are you using wordpress.com or jetpack?

Nothing has changed on the login form, it has username and password fields.

There must be a plugin or theme active on your site which is overriding the login process with its own. The built-in login process in WordPress has only one step.
