Password manager: how to manually add a new login / password for a site?

Dears, 

 Due to a mysterious reason, the password manager of firefox on my home PC does not want to keep in memory my login/pwd for a given site. I mean: this works well for other sites (as well a brother site of the problematic one, as well as the problematic site with the same version of firefox but on another PC). But, never mind.

As a workaround, I would like to be able to manually add a new login/pwd in the password manager. How to do this?

Best regards Christophe

You are using a Firefox 68 release. This release uses the legacy Password Manager and this component doesn't allow to create a new login like is possible in current Firefox releases with Lockwise.

For Firefox 68 you can install the Lockwise extension. See Firefox 69 and below:

You can find the "New Login" button in the top right corner.
