Help Log in settings for websites

I must have done something because all of a sudden when I need to log into websites my log in info won't pop up and automatically log me in. I have been all through settings and for the life of me don't see where to enable this back to the way it was. Mary
 
You most likely cleared out the cache partition for your browser and its' cookies.

You will have to log into each website once again, and very carefully look for the "Remember Me" checkbox.

If you don't check that box, the browser won't remember you next time.

PITA, been there, done that many times.
 
Ok I thought when I first got this phone I could have sworn it was like my LG phone where the phone stored log in info for sites. I would get a box that came up asking me if I wanted the phone to remember the log in for websites. Then in phone settings you could clear the browser cache and clearing website passwords was a separate phone setting. I must be loosing it I guess. I liked that set up on the LG phones better as the log in stuff was saved on the phone not the browser. I must have done something though because dolphin browser is filling in the log in info again but chrome isin't and I have it checked to save passwords and auto fill forms in chrome. I don't see where dolphin has those settings.
 
Another thing one of the forums I visit when you click to post a message there is no option for the site to remember your log in info because you don't log into the main site and when you post a message you just fill in your user name and password every time and there is nothing there to tick that will remember it but dolphin browser alwsys did as did chrome so I am confused how it remembered. On my PC i usr norton identity safe for log ins. Mary
 
I use Last Pass on my PC, and there is an Android version, but I don't want anyone to have access to Last Pass in the off chance I should loose the phone..... heaven forbid.

I only log into about 3 forums and my email, that's not a heavy load for the browser to keep track of.
