Hi !
In addition to the above (just to make sure) :
In Options/Preferences => Privacy & Security
Under 'Forms & Passwords' :
Is 'Remember logins and passwords for websites' checked ?

Delete the cookies to that account restart Firefox and then when go there you should get the ask to save password pop-out.
Note : Firefox 57 Quantum release date Nov 14th

Note : Legacy Extensions will be disabled and or removed.
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
I set Firefox to delete cookies when I close it, it never saves my privacy settings.
Then you will always have to sign in.
A detail like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie.
You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:
- you can create an "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Cached Web Content: "Clear Now": Exceptions
Let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies instead of using "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear the cookies.
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> "Use custom settings for history" -> Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
