Hi pbrandeis1
A detail like a website remembering you (log you in automatically) is stored in a cookie.
If you do not keep this cookie then you need to sign in again.
You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:
- create a cookie allow exception with the proper protocol (https:// or http://) to make a website remember you
- use "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" to let cookies without allow exception expire when Firefox is closed
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
Cookies and Site Data: "Manage Permissions"
If you use extensions that deal with cookies then check their settings
In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.
- do not clear the Cookies
- do not clear the Site Preferences
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history":
[X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" -> Settings - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-browsing-search-download-history-firefox
- clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
- clearing "Cookies" will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an allow exception you may want to keep
