input type=hidden are not being matched

[lucianobosco]

Many datetime pickers use visible inputs for showing formatted dates and hidden fields for the value that is in fact selected.
This is the case of flatpickr

<div class="input-group">
    <input type="hidden" data-input="true" name="birthday" placeholder="20/12/1983" class="flatpickr-input" value="">
    <input placeholder="20/12/1983" tabindex="0" type="text">
</div>

Is there any chance to get hidden fields working?

Custom radio/option buttons sometimes use this same pattern

This repo appears to no longer be actively maintained. I forked the repo and resolved the issue here: https://github.com/calvinballing/fake-filler-extension

At the moment, to use this you'd need to clone the modified repo, run the build script to generate the files in the /dist folder then load the extension in Chrome by turning on Developer Options and loading an unpacked extension by pointing it at the /dist folder.

@lucianobosco
I've made a clone of this Extension called Fake Filler 2, which can match hidden fields.

Any feedback is welcome!
