Edit My Favorites Page

“Edit My Favorites” page

The number of favorites that are displayed has increased to 50 for all favorites types, so here’s how to edit your favorites.

To visit your “Edit My Favorites” page:

1. Log into AKO/DKO.
2. Click on the ‘Favorites’ drop down menu.
3. Click on ‘Edit My Favorites’.

This will open your “Edit My Favorites” page which contains all of the information you have saved to favorites, such as AKO/DKO pages, forums, files, and external links.

Add a Portal Page

1. Visit the page you wish to add.
2. Click on ‘Options’ located at the top right of the page.
3. Click on ‘Add to Favs’.

Add/Remove/Edit External Pages/Links

In the second section of the page, your external favorite links are listed. These are links that are not in the AKO/DKO portal. To add, remove, or change links within this section, click the ‘Edit’ button located at the top of the list of links. This will give you the option to add, delete, or reorder the links.

Once you are done, you will want to click on ‘View Mode’.
