This is probably an edge case where the fields in the browser cannot be identified by their ids/classname. In this kinds of a scenario, you can set extra fields (and their corresponding values) in Bitwarden after inspecting the field elements in Dev tools.

No he means that Bitwarden's extension does not remember state. When you go back and forth between the form and opening the extension window, you always start at the default page. It does not remember you had an item open before. This happens with your credit card for instance which is typically not linked to a particular url.

This is one of my annoyances as well. Copy the credit card number... go to paste it. Come back and you have to find the credit card again and then copy the next bit... then go paste and when you come back you're once again presented with the full list so you have to go find the credit card again.

I've found just opening the main app to be a better solution in these cases, but it sure is annoying.
