# Favorites

> Bookmark the compositions, entries, assets, components, content types, and patterns you use most for quick access across your project.

Favorites are personal bookmarks for the items you work with most. Select the star on an item to add it to your favorites, and it becomes available in a dedicated **Favorites** view wherever that item is listed or selected.

Favorites are **per user and per project**: the items you favorite are yours alone and don't change what your teammates see.

## What you can favorite

You can favorite nine entity types, grouped below as they appear in the **Experience** menu of the main navigation:

| Menu group | Entity types |
| --- | --- |
| Assembly | [Compositions](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/compositions), [composition patterns](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/patterns/composition-patterns), and [component patterns](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/patterns/component-patterns) |
| Content | [Entries](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/entries), [entry patterns](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/patterns/entry-patterns), and [assets](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/manage-assets/asset-library) |
| Modeling | [Components](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/models/components), [content types](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/models/content-types), and [block types](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/models/blocks) |

## Add or remove a favorite

Every place an item appears with a star, you can toggle its favorite state:

- **Add to favorites**: select the star so it becomes filled.
- **Remove from favorites**: select a filled star to clear it.

An item is either a favorite or it isn't — favoriting the same item from different places doesn't create duplicates.

> **Note:**
>
> In listings, the star for an item that isn't favorited appears when you hover over its row or card. Once an item is favorited, its star stays visible so you can spot your favorites at a glance.

### From a listing

Each content listing (Compositions, Entries, Assets, Components, Content types, Entry patterns, Component patterns, and Composition patterns) shows a star on every row or card. Use it to favorite or unfavorite an item without opening it.

### From an editor

When you open a composition, entry, asset, component, content type, block type, or pattern, its editor header shows a star next to the item name. This lets you favorite the item you're currently working on.

## Where your favorites appear

### The Favorites view in a listing

Every content listing has a **Favorites** item in its sidebar. Selecting it filters the listing to only the items of that type you've favorited.

Because block types are managed alongside content types, your favorite content types and block types both appear in the **Favorites** view of the **Content types** listing.

> **Favorites in the asset library:**
>
> The **Favorites** view is available for the [Uniform Asset Library](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/manage-assets/asset-library). Assets exposed through [DAM integrations](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/integrations/dam) aren't tracked as Uniform favorites.

### When selecting content

Favorites also help you move faster when you're choosing an item, not just browsing one. A **Favorites** view is available in the selection experiences where these entity types are picked, including:

- The [asset parameter](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/manage-assets/asset-parameter) picker, when selecting an asset.
- The type selector when [creating an entry](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/entries/authoring-entries) (content types and entry patterns) or [creating a composition](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/compositions) (composition types and composition patterns).
- The component inserter when adding a component or component pattern to a slot in the [visual editor](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/composition/visual-editing).
- The picker for reference fields and the switchers used to open another entry or composition.

Favoriting the types and patterns you reach for most keeps them one click away in these flows.

### On the project dashboard

The [**My recents** card](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/content-organization/my-recents#on-the-project-dashboard) on the project dashboard includes an **All / Favorites** toggle. Switch it to **Favorites** to filter the card to the items you've favorited, connecting your favorites with your most recent work.

## Favorites limit

You can have up to **100 favorites per project**. This limit is shared across all entity types — compositions, entries, assets, and everything else count toward the same total.

If you reach the limit, remove an existing favorite before adding a new one.

## Deleted items

Favorites point to specific items. If an item you favorited is later deleted, it's no longer shown in your **Favorites** views and is removed from selection experiences automatically. Restoring the item from [Trash](https://docs.uniform.app/docs/guides/content-organization/trash) doesn't add it back to your favorites.
