Feature request: add "Add to Favorites" on the /favorited page.

January 19, 2015 2:52 PM

Hello! I have clumsy fingers and clicking the plus sign to "add to favorites" often leads me to the /favorited page for that post, because I miss. It'd be neat if the option to "Add to favorites" appeared on that page, so that I wouldn't have to go back to the original post/moment and try again (often missing again). Thanks for your consideration.

Are you on a desktop browser? We do have "Add to Favorites" at the top of that page for mobile devices where mistaps are more frequent.

Here's the previous thread: Fat fingers strike again!. I mentioned we added it in the last comment there.

I just tested on an iPad in Safari, running iOS 8.1.2. I see [Add to Favorites] at the top of the page. Which browser are you using?

Safari, iOS 7.1.2. I just wiped the cache and it's there now.

CLOSE IT UP, we're done. Thanks!

And thus the tales of pb's talents did spread throughout the Kingdom, and the King, who was troubled by a dragon and other "first kingdom problems," sent for pb, and offered him the hand of the Princess, or the leg of a Prince, or an Earl's brisket, should the dragon problem be appropriately managed and ultimately transitioned out of the Kingdom.

And pb said to the King, "Sire, I actually solved the dragon infestation issue a while ago, can I ask what you're running there?" And the King was all like, "Oh I'm using Fairytale 7.5 - what, should I upgrade?" And pb was like, "Yeah you probably should, also clear your cache".

And when pb cleared the King's cache of all his treasure, and deleted certain historical records the Queen would not have appreciated, the dragon problem disappeared, and all rejoiced throughout the land, and they dined all on Earl-brisket, and lived happily ever after, except for the Earl's family who were pretty whiny about it all, to be honest. The End.

Well, ain't no one topping that, so here's my favorite Fractured Fairy Tale. What's yours?

It's like "Galavant" but with a midi soundtrack.

I laughed more at that comment than I did at the two episodes of "Galavant" that I watched.

Curious Artificer, thank you for the link to Fractured Fairy Tales, which I am forwarding to my (adult) kids, who loved Roald Dahl's Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf when they were tikes.
