Firefox won't keep me logged into Facebook, even in Safe Mode?
This problem has been bugging me, for God knows how long and I just can't get rid of it, unless I reset Firefox which is really not want I want to be doing just to get rid of this tiny, but irritating problem.
Firefox never remembers to be signed in still to Facebook, even in Safe Mode without extensions.
How can I get rid of this problem? If it isn't possible without resetting, I'd like a simple and concise tutorial on how to get all my extensions and settings back (however obviously not the one that keeps causing this problem). I've been using this Firefox profile for at least a good few years and it's all set up properly for my personal use. Thanks.

Also, this only applies for Facebook, as far as I know. I did have a little trouble with logging into Tumblr with my addons activated, but I could login on safe mode and then restart FF back into normal mode and it would be fine.

Thank you! That guide worked perfectly, all I had to do was forget history for the site. Any idea why the problem may have occured?
firefox is able to keep different cookie settings on a per-site basis. those probably got cleared when you forgot the history about facebook. you can inspect the current permissions while you're on a site when you right-click it, go to view page info > permissions. if you haven't changed that yourself intentionally, then i also don't really know what might have caused that - maybe an addon was interfering?
