The feature lets you indicate which Tiki objects (wiki pages, articles, tracker items, ...) are your favorites, and lets you display them all for you in another custom wiki page or module. 

!! Enable the feature
The feature can be enabled at: 
__Admin home (Control Panels) > Users & Community > User Settings > User Features > User Favorites__

As the feature uses the ((Wiki Argument Variables|Wiki Argument Variable)) {HTML()} {{user}}{HTML} you should also enable this at:
__Admin home (Control Panels) > Editing and Plugins > Wiki Argument Variables__

!! How to use it
Once both features are enable, you can set the Favorite flag on an object by using in the "Action" menu, "{icon name="star-o"} Favorite".

To view your favorites or any other user favorites you can use the ((PluginList)) by adding a ((PluginList filter control block|filter))
to display them.

!!! Simple Sample
''Without the space around {user}''

{CODE(color="tiki")}
{LIST()}
{filter favorite="{ {user} }"}
{LIST}
{CODE}

Note: The List plugin uses the search index in order to create the favorite list. Therefore, if the index is built while excluding some categories (preference: unified_excluded_categories), items from these categories would not appear on the favorite list even if they are tagged as favorite.
