Add To Favorites

When you want to add multiple favorites, use the Manage Favorites page rather than the Favorites menu. This is because the Manage Favorites page remains open until you close it, saving you steps in the creation process.

To add favorites:

  1. Obtain the URLs you want to save in your favorites:
    • For pages external to WebCenter Portal, go to a favorite web location and copy its URL.

    • For WebCenter Portal pages, log in and go to the page you want to make a favorite.

    • If you know the URL, enter it manually when prompted.

    Note:

    URLs that start with a slash (/) are the only URLs recognized as internal to WebCenter Portal. If you create a favorite to a WebCenter Portal page that does not start with a slash (/), but rather starts with http://, when you navigate to that page through your favorite, it will first show a message warning that you are leaving WebCenter Portal.

  2. In the Add To Favorites dialog, in the Name field enter a display name for the favorite.
  3. In the Web Address field, paste the URL you copied in step 1, or enter a URL manually.
  4. To enable the sharing of this favorite in other users' search results, select Shared.
  5. Click OK.

    The new favorite appears in the Manage Favorites page and in the Favorites menu.
