Hi Paul, You are correct, if the 1password safari extension is working properly, when you are on a website that 1password has login information stored for, simply pressing command+backslash causes 1password to automatically fill in the username, password and automatically log you in to the site.
I would encourage you to check the 1password login entry for the site that got automatically generated and make sure that both the username and password are filled in. With 1password in focus, pressing command+shift+l will put you in the window where the list of logins that you have created and stored in 1password will be displayed.
