Checkout MemberScript #106 - Liking & Saving CMS Items
This script works with Finsweet's loadMore attributes, meaning you can use it with 100+ CMS items and it still loads next to instantly.

This should help. Also check out Script #24
Is this actualy saving the favorites inside memberstack or is it using local storage / cookies?
Yup, it saves it under members JSON
Excelent, my client is an architect, people have to look at images and favorite some. like pintrest, but only his photos on the site because they are making decisions on wallpaper, stairs, toilets and so on. So if I implement this, how do I allow the owner of the website to see a specific person's favorites? ( without having there login pasword )
johan Van Wambeke You would have to create your own backend automation (with make or zapier for example) that looks for memberstack json updates and in turn, updates a webflow page or a CMS item with a reference of the user that liked/favorited it. Then its just a matter of presenting it to a user with a filter system so you can check which user likes what.
To do this successfully you would only really need the favorited items collection id, item id, and the memberstack ID/webflow user ID (for the reference field)
Can memberstack support "Favoriting"? I am trying to have gated access to have the ability to favorite items in a directory.
Make use of json feature with it
Hey johan Van Wambeke,
Hope you got this setup for your client.
For future readers here, you can enable users to save CMS items via the site and can also view all of your users' favorites in one place by using this memberscript which will now store the favorites in Memberstack's Data Table so that you don't need to view every single member's record to know their favorites and can view it directly via the Data Table you setup in Memberstack.
Hope this helps.
