When I create a new Page that's associated to my test Field Group "Testimonials" several unwanted things happen.

  1. Chrome automatically pastes the most recently used username and password into the Email field and the Password field
  2. On Publish/Update the email address is rejected due to invalid format.
  3. But, once the email is corrected, the Password is saved.
  4. Which is then revealed on the front end in the acf-field-block that's been configured to display the password field.

Q: Should I disable the acf-field block for the password field type? or simply display stars?

I tried turning off the Sign In Automatically toggle on chrome://password-manager/settings
but it didn't appear to take any effect.

Another way to prevent autocomplete is to use HTML attributes. See
