Can you please explain why autocomplete needs to be off on all forms? |
Not all. W3C/WAI WCAG21 recommends that "each input field collecting information about the user" implements technology to support inputs, such as auto-completion. That's why this PR enables auto-completion on However, auto-completion features currently common browsers implement are not suitable for the other forms: Those features support input of information about the user of the browser itself, while those forms (e.g. subscribers management) may be used to input the information about the other users. Therefore, enabling such features can be a securirty risk. |
