How can I save a password only for a path of a domain?
I have a domain, which has different password boxes.
For example I have example.com/adminboard and example.com/customuserlogin. So now I want to save a password, which gets filled in example.com/adminboard, but does not get filled into example.com/customuserlogin. How can I do that?
I have Saved Password Editor (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor) installed, so I can modify the data. My best try was to change the "Host" value there to "https://example.com/adminboard/" (not the subsequent slash). When I changed it, the favicon (which is different on the two sites) on the left changed from the old one to the new one, so I had hope it would work now, but unfortunately it does not.
Any idea how to do this?

The built-in Password Manager can only deal with web addresses. What you could do is to use a form filling add-on. They can be set up the way you want.
Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
A hostname is just the part between https:// and the next / character.
The logins.json file has a field called formSubmitURL but Firefox doesn't store the full path, which would have been a good way to resolve this issue. It's just the hostname of the form submit action (usually but not always the same site).
I think an add-on or third party password manager will be needed for this site.
If you can suggest add-ons this would be good.
With my add-on I can also modify the "submit prefix", which I assume is the formSubmitURL, but when I set this to the one used at http://example.com/adminboard (it is "http://example.com/adminboard"), Firefox does still auto-fill my password into http://example.com/customuserlogin.
People mention a variety of commercial and free programs here, and I don't have a specific recommendation. There are many password managers, some using local storage and some using cloud storage, some with close browser integration, and some that use the clipboard. I haven't tried any recently, although it might be time...
Here's one example: KeePass is FOSS and can run on Linux using the .Net-emulating Mono package. More info, sometimes conflicting:
