How To Configure Favorites Function

Posted on by admin



Internet bookmarks and favorites are a great way to quickly navigate back to the websites you visit the most. To add a bookmark or favorite, select your preferred browser from the list below and follow the instructions.

Tip

Select the search criteria (genre, region, language, etc.) of your choice. You can also enter a keyword to search for a station you want to hear. Select the radio station of your choice from the list, and then click the Add to Favorites icon. Enter the name of the favorite group, then click “Go”. It's also possible to hide the name of a favorite or folder in the favorites bar to fit even more links. To hide or show the name of the favorite or folder, right-click the item from the address.

Troubleshooting

Bookmark page stops working

How To Configure Favorites Function Free

Web pages that are created dynamically, require a login, or have frequently updated information, may expire after so many hours or days. If the bookmark expires frequently, we suggest bookmarking the main page and not a subpage. For example, create a bookmark for https://www.computerhope.com/ and not https://www.computerhope.com/jargon/h/harddriv.htm. It is also possible that the page's location has changed or was removed.

To fix this problem, delete the bookmark that is no longer working and add a new bookmark to the page that is working.
