I have a page inside a folder, but when I favorite that page, it does not show up in the top level favorites, only in the folder favorites. This defeats the purpose of favorites. Am I missing something?

Hi Mary,

Your comment misses a “not” in one of the two parts, I assume the first? I also assume you favorites are the same as short cuts?

In Coda, there is a separate folder for shortcuts. Inside that folder, and every other folder, the docs can be sorted in different sequences (modified, created, viewed, as shown below.

Yes. I missed the “not.” I corrected it. And, yes. I made it even more confusing by not using the correct term.

Here’s what I’m saying:

On the top page - the landing page, the Shortcuts do not include shortcuts from subfolders.

Here’s my subfolder shortcuts that I want to appear everywhere.

But, at the HOME page, I have lost that set of shortcuts and only have these:

Thanks, clear now. It makes sense.

I suggest you post this in the “bug” section of the community.

Thanks for this @Piet_Strydom.

~~I’ll go ahead and move this over to the Bugs section.~~

After checking with the team, it looks like subpages are not docs. Shortcuts are different than starred pages. The difference is that one is starring a page for a doc and the other is starring a doc in a workspace. We do not have shortcuts that you can save to your workspace. Apologizes for any confusion here!

Ah - I missed the transition from doc to workspace…

Can you point me to a place where I can learn more about the distinctions you’re making here? Doc vs workspace vs subpages, and shortcuts vs starred pages?

This sentence isn’t getting me far enough: “The difference is that one is starring a page for a doc and the other is starring a doc in a workspace. We do not have shortcuts that you can save to your workspace.”

If I’m not mistaken (😇) @Mary_Going , you could see things like this 😊 :

```auto
Coda Account

  * Level 1: Workspaces

    * Level 2: Docs

      * Level 2.1: Pages

        * Level 2.1.1: Subpages

```

So,

- `Starred Docs` are shortcuts at the `Workspace level` (i.e.: Level 1)
- `Starred Pages & Subpages` are shortcuts at the `Doc level` (i.e.: Level 2)

`My Shortcuts` in a `Workspace` are the starred docs in that specific Workspace.  
And the shortcuts you would find in `All Docs` → `My Shortcuts` are all your `Starred Docs` across all your `Workspaces` 😊

@Pch - that structure is super helpful. Thank you!
