Login account change?

I guess this is the right place for this question.

I currently use the Facebook button to log in.
It does not keep me logged in for long and I am having to log in over and over and over just to read posts while cooking breakfast.

Is there anyway to change my account to a regular login with username Casa Del Gatos and keep my profile, post history, etc.?

TIA!

You should be able to log in on the website login page.
Log out , then open the page and log back in click remember me!

No dice.
It will only let me log in with the FB button and "Remember Me" doesn't change that behavior.

Actually, it has been this way since I joined.I think it is a Facebook-specific thing.
That is why I am wanting to set up a "normal" login. Just don't want to lose my settings and posts.

Have you tried a regular login using you FB credentials (name and password)?

You might need to clear out saved passwords in you browser.

Got it now. Had to reset my password (I had already set it, but apparently did not remember it correctly).

Thanks again.
