how do I get firefox to remember a password when I've already told it not to

I went to a web site and entered my username and password, but when prompted I told Firefox that I did not want it to save the password for the site.

I find I'm using the site quite a lot and now I'd like FF to remember the site's password. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I've seen some instructions for this, but I think they aren't for FF browser in Android (on my tablet)

Thanks.

Could you try this:

While you are viewing the site, tap the lock icon in the address bar.

Firefox for Android should display an overlay showing a link for Edit Site Settings when there is a login saved or custom permission set. Tap that if you see it.

If you find Logins with "Don't Save" under it, tap the checkbox and then tap Clear to remove that block.

Success?
