As soon as I started using FB Container, FB did not recognise my browser (Firefox) and made me authenticate myself by having to enter a number texted to me. There was no problem if I logged on using Google Chrome. I have disabled FB Container and now I can log straight on again as before. I'm keen to use FB Container, but the hassle of getting authenticated every time is nor worth it.

Hi, This could very well be a bug. Have you tried reporting it to mozilla support?

Did you try to create a cookie allow exception for Facebook ? A website remembering you is stored in a cookie and if you use containers then you isolate cookies, but you still need to keep these cookies.

Let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies instead of using "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear all cookies including cookies with an allow exception you may want to keep.
