## Description

This plugin allows you to easily bookmark/favorite posts, pages and custom post 
types. When you ‘star’ a post a shortcut link will appear in the admin menu.

this plugin if you constantly find yourself editing the same posts or pages, and
are sick of showing the list of posts first, then finding the post, then clicking
edit.

_Steps to use_

 1. Go to Pages
 2. Click the Star icon on a page.
 3. Your page is now bookmarked!
 4. Repeat for other pages you always edit.
 5. Save time!

It’s the little things in life that count, and this will shave off 3-5 seconds of
scanning your site pages for the one you wish to edit every time. It’s such a simple
thing, but really nice to have! Much thanks to Brad Vincent for the plugin.
