Disabling Overview
Password Boss works by scanning web pages looking for fields on the web pages to enter usernames, passwords, contact information, and payment details. You may not want Password Boss to put the owls in the fields on some pages and sites.
When Password Boss is disabled on a page or a site, you will no longer see the owls in the fields, and Password Boss will not be able to fill in any data on these disabled pages.
The recommended way to disable Password Boss on sites is to disable all of the internal pages for a site, but leave the login page active so you can use Password Boss to log in to the site.
Generally, this approach requires adding two entries to the disabled list. One entry will whitelist the login page and one entry will block the rest of the site.
Example of how to disable sites
The example below is how to disable Password Boss on all of the internal pages for the QuickBooks site, but not on the login page so Password Boss can still log you into the site. This example shows the administrative portal for a business. You can also make the same setting from the Password Boss app in Settings->Disable List
If you add entries to the disable list in your local Password Boss app, the entries will only work for your Password Boss user account. If all of the users at your company or your customer need the same entries, the recommended approach is to add the entries via the portal.
