How to add Web GIS items to favorites

To add a resource to Favorites, navigate to its page, click on the user initials in the top panel to open the menu and press the star icon.

Editing Favorites
To remove a resource from Favorites, click the bin icon on the right. No additional confirmation needed. Deleting from Favorites will not affect the resource itself. You can add it to Favorites and remove it multiple times.
Also from this page you can modify the name of the added Web Map fragments.
