Since the "add on" issue with FireFox Moxilla a few weeks back, the "save" buttons (both in the browser, which is an add on; and on their website, which is not any type of browser add-on or extension) stopped appearing. All of the pinterest emails are not clickable to save a pin. Website auto "pin this" buttons are not working. An update didn't work. Clearing cookies, cache, temp history, etc. didn't work. This happened specifically after the issues Moxilla had with firefox add-ons/extensions which was fixed so quickly most people didn't even know it happened. When I visit Pinterest.com the page loads the header, but the rest of the page is blank. This happens on every synced FireFox device except android. Likewise on a computer-based Moxilla FireFox browser, pinterest emails do not have any "save" buttons. So you can receive the email, click through to an item of interest, but you cannot save it. This is something very odd.

Are you possibly using permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History)?

Did you also look at pinterest FAQ or contact support about this issue as well.
You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History -> Show All History" or "View -> Sidebar -> History").
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from this domain like history and cookies and passwords and exceptions and cache, so be cautious. If you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of involved files.
If you revisit a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

Yes. Pinterest did not have any help available. It seemed to be specific to the issue Firefox had recently.
Okay, so I fixed this issue after following everyone's suggestions. None of them worked. So I figured the issue was one that wasn't common. I deleted everything related to Pinterest from Firefox. Changed my Pinterest password. Re-logged in and then restored bookmarks, etc. Eventually it resolved.
However, now I have a new problem since doing these steps. The option within FireFox to reopen the last open tabs (after Firefox closes) is now no longer highlighted or available to me. each time it restarts, it goes to a blank page and the setting area to fix this is greyed out and not available to click the setting.
