Import Login info from .csv file

I am trying to import user names and passwords from a .csv file. I've enabled import and the "import from file" option appears, however, after I select the .csv file none of the user names or passwords are imported. Is there a reason for this, an additional step to take, or specific format? The document has columns: url, username, password — in that order. There doesn't seem to be any reason the list is not importing. Any help?

I assume it would be the same format as the file produced by Export. This worked in a quick test (please ignore the way the forum creates a link, it should be plain text):

"url","username","password","httpRealm","formActionOrigin","guid","timeCreated","timeLastUsed","timePasswordChanged" "https://www.jeffersonscher.com","test123","top_secret",,,,,,

This is a dummy login page that you can use to test saving and accessing saved logins. Don't use any of your real logins:

You need at least origin (url) and username and password columns in the header line.

You can possibly temporarily set signon.debug = true and check the Browser Console for possible messages.
