Links to favourite LT pages on home page

Hi!

I think it would be nice to have the links to my favourite LT pages on my home page for easy access. As everyone will have different favourites, a block for custom links would be great, imo. :)

There's a module "Your Notepad" that'll let you do exactly that.

>2 bnielsen: Where would one find that? It's not in "unused".

>3 DuncanHill: Good question. I clicked on my "Your Notepad" and it says that I can add it to:

Overview
Recent News
About You
Recommandations
Books
Reviews
Community
Lists
Helpers
Folly
Unused

Mine is added to Overview. (And the rest of these places can be reached from your Home page using the menu on the left.)

>3 DuncanHill: I can never remember where it is, and even have forgot that we have our notepad

I just found it!

Home
About you (on the left)
scroll down through the center options, it's there, on mine it's just above Recently Added

>5 DebiCates: Thanks, found it!

I had no idea there was so much "about me"!

>7 Ennas: Beware that it is very easy to add notes. (So mine is hopelessly long :-)

And you can add the module in more places than one (but with the same content).

And you can change the position of the modules as you fancy.

>8 bnielsen: I was just going to ask, can it only reside in one place? Thanks for reading my mind, Kai!

I used it to keep hard-to-find LT links. Then once I got better at navigating, I forgot about it. Thanks to DuncanHill's question, now I'm thinking what I should now be using it for. I'm very tempted to put pics of my grandkids there, and move it to the top of Overview, like any self-respecting proud granny should.

>10 Ennas: And thanks for making me explore the settings of that module! I always learn something new here even though I've been on the site for many years :-)
