When I first sign up for a site requiring login credentials, there is a popup saying "remember this site?" or some such. How do I call that at a later time, when I'm using the site & logged in?

When you return to the login page of that site, the Password Manager should load the data for you.

Type about:preferences#security<enter> in the address bar. Look under Logins,

Note: For Firefox v56+ its; about:preferences#privacy Look under Forms & Passwords +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Turn on Remember Logins. To check the passwords you have listed, press Saved Logins.

Press the Exceptions button and see what's inside.

Firefox shows the Key icon at the left end of the location bar when it detect a login form, so you can look for this icon.

Note that there is "Fill login" and "Fill Password" in the right-click context menu that you can use if Firefox doesn't fill this data automatically.
