Hello,
I want to use autofill in Firefox in order to quickly submit contact forms.
My problem is in the column "Site" (Document title or URL required to trigger autofill) I delete it for every line.
But it reappear every time I add a new rule.
I want each line works for every website.
I have Aufill  v9.6.6 on Firefox.
Thank you very much

Without the site filter you will have unexpected behavior since all rules will try to execute for all sites, possibly overwriting each other.

If you want global rules that execute everywhere, then you can manually create rules and leave the site filter empty. An option will be introduced to set a default profile so that it doesn't change every time you select to execute a profile.

Thank you for your answer.
" you can manually create rules and leave the site filter empty"
This is exactly what I'm doing.
Click right on a field, add rule for this profil, write something in the field et click to the submit button of your extension.
After that in AutoFill Option I delete the field "Site".
But when I do that again, your extension write the name of the website where I do the process "add new rule to this profil", it write the URL of the website on my all 110 rules.
I just would like my rules works for every websites, not particulary one.

Vincent, do you mind recording a loom of what you're seeing?

When you select Autofill / Add rule for this field from right-click context menu, it does one of the following:
  1. If none of the rules in the profile have Site filter, it will add a Site filter at the profile level.
  2. If one or more rules in the profile have the Site filter that's the same as the current page, it will remove the rule-level Site filters and add one at the profile level.
  3. If at least one rule in the profile has a Site filter that is different from the current page, it will add a rule-level Site filter or the rule you're adding.

I think I will add an option in the next version to bypass creating the Site filter when creating new rules.
