How to use Probha favourite post plugin

Visitors often come to your blog in a hurry. Sometimes they find an important post, but they don’t have time to read it at that moment. In normal blogs, they may lose that post later. But in the Probha template, there is a Favourite Post (bookmark) feature.

With this plugin, visitors can save any post to their Favourite List with just one click. The best part is, they don’t need to create an account or log in. The data is saved in their browser’s Local Storage, so when they come back later, they can still see their saved posts.

Where to find the plugin?

To set up the Favourite Post feature, you need to add the plugin from your Blogger layout section. Follow the steps below carefully:

• Go to your Blogger Dashboard and select your blog.
• From the left sidebar, click on the Layout option.
• On the layout page, look for the section named Plugins
• From the gadget list, find and select the "Favourite Post" plugin.
• After adding it, click Edit to customize its settings if needed.
• Finally, click Save to apply the changes.

Once you complete these steps, the Favourite Post feature will be active on your blog, allowing visitors to save posts easily.

    }
}

Status and Limit

"status": true — Keep this true to enable the feature on your blog.

"total": "100" — This sets the maximum number of posts a user can save. By default, it is set to 100, but you can change it anytime.

Notification Messages

These messages appear as small popups when users interact with the favourite feature:

"added" — Message shown after a post is successfully saved.

"maximum" — Message shown when the user reaches the save limit.

"deleted" — Message shown after a post is removed from favourites.

"nofavourites" — Message shown when the favourite list is empty.

Delete Confirmation

To prevent accidental removal, a confirmation popup appears when a user tries to delete a saved post:

"title" — The title of the confirmation box.

"text" — The warning or description message.

"delete" — Text for the confirm delete button.

"cancel" — Text for the cancel button.

Conclusion

This feature is very helpful for increasing user engagement on your blog. When visitors can save their favorite posts, they are more likely to return to your site again.
