The site in question does not, as far as I know, stop passwords etc from being remembered. When I first started with the site I believe I declined the option to have my password remembered. I would like to reverse that decision. Is there a way of doing this. I have been through all the other options mentioned in Firefox help.

If you've clicked "Never" the Firefox has created a block exception that you need to remove.

  • Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions

Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode.

  • You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
  • To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
