To do this switch the toggle under <strong>Project favorites<\/strong> to <strong>Activate project favorites<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can mark a project as a favorite in the Projects page by clicking on the star next to it, or directly in the project finder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Favorite&nbsp;projects are user specific.
