Renaming an Entry in My Favorites
The My Favorites feature enables you to create lists and shortcuts to items that you use routinely or otherwise want to keep close at hand. Using My Favorites, you can:
*Display the list of assets that you own (or that you consume) with a single click.
*Create quick links to selected assets in the catalog.
*Create a quick link to a saved search or XQuery.
*Create a quick link to a list of assets of a particular category or type.
The My Favorites list resides on the page Home > My CentraSite. By default, it contains the following entries:
Choose this entry...
To...
Assets I Consume
Display the list of assets for which you are registered as a consumer.
Assets I Provide

Additionally, you can add any of the following entries to My Favorites:

Smart Lists
The following types of entries are called smart lists:
*Saved search

*List of Category
A smart list produces a dynamic result that is based on a query. For example, when you choose a “List of Type” or a “List of Category” entry, CentraSite Control executes the appropriate query against the registry and returns a list of objects that matches the requested object type or taxonomy category.
