How to prevent http-to-https switching for a particular Web site
My desktop Firefox recently decided to permanently change http to https for my lab Web site. My lab server can't handle https so I was unable to view my Web site using Firefox. I was able to correct this problem by going to Hamburger icon > History > Manage history, searching for my Web site, right-clicking on one of the found items, choosing Forget About This Site, and clicking on Forget.
How can I do this on my Android phone? I haven't been able to find the corresponding functions in the user interface.
I'm using Firefox 105.2.0 on my phone.
Thank you. - Robert

Hi
If you open the Firefox for Android menu and select Settings, what do you have HTTPS-Only mode set to?
Sorry, I forgot to include that information. The HTTPS-Only mode is set to Off.
Do you have any add-ons installed in Firefox for Android?
I've never installed any add-ons in Firefox on my phone. When I go to ⋮ > Add-ons, there's just a long list of 'Recommended' add-ons.
Can you try opening http://eu.httpbin.org/ with HTTPS-Only Mode set to off?
Thanks for the suggestion. I opened that link successfully. Should I be looking for something in particular?
I expect to be able to open http sites, as long as I haven't previously opened them at a time when Firefox decided to permanently change http to https for that site, as it did for my lab Web site. I don't understand when, how or why Firefox did that. In my desktop Firefox I can undo it.
