When you're logged in at POI Factory, you'll now see "My Favorite Files" near the top right column.
The page lists POI files that you've downloaded in the past and makes it easier to find files that have been updated.
A file marked with "new" has been updated since the last time you downloaded it.

Better Than The Other Option..
Miss POI said in part..
I like to have you all in a constant mode of anticipation.
Miss POI
Well it's better than having us all in a constant mode of being P.O.'d
(I know. My wife tells me I have a weird sense of humor.)

Great Addition
Jon you will let us know when you install the feature to remove poi's from our favorite list won't you.
Looking at mine is looks like it shows everyone I have looked at since joining the group. Does it search back that far?

Thanks..
Just a suggestion.Would it
Just a suggestion.Would it be easier to leave the favorites screen blank and let the user add the files that they want to add for monitoring?Any new updates will be tagged to files that the user has listed on their screen.

This would make the feature useful to me. Most of the entries I have listed are there becuase I opened them to help another user or to make sure my submission wasn't already there. But they are not necessarily files I care about loading or keeping track of for updates.

schumans' Batch POI download utility
Hi JM - Would it be possible to integrate schumans' Batch POI download utility into My Favorite Files? -- VinceCANuvi

Works Great
The new addition makes it a lot easier to keep files updated.
Thanks Very Much
already has history
I was about to re-download some of my favorite POI's just so the favorites list would be able to track them, but much to my surprise it already knows them all. Very cool, nice feature, thanks for adding it!
already has history
As Miss POI stated in eariler post the favorite list is a history of everything you have downloaded on the site.

What a great feature!!!!!
Thank you. What a great feature.. I just tried it and it is great.
Are You Sure?
As Miss POI stated in eariler post the favorite list is a history of everything you have downloaded on the site.
My list contains files I have never even looked at, never mind ever downloaded.

Agree.
My list contains files I have never even looked at, never mind ever downloaded.
I certainly appreciate the effort put into the new feature, but to be truly useful for me, there needs to be a capability to selectively remove items from the list. I won't say for sure I never downloaded or opened all the files on my list ... but some of them I don't recall opening and have no interest in tracking them.

OK

OK, I thought it was just me or there was something I didn't understand.

Remove Favorites / Exclude Maintainer's Files
"My Favorite Files" now has checkboxes and a button to remove items from your list. The list also automatically excludes files that you maintain.
JM
Oh yea!
I like the check boxes, thanks.

Check boxes
Thanks a lot for the recent change adding the check boxes.A nice addition for the site.
Edit.The Redlight and Speed cameras not showing up under My Favorite files.Just re-downloaded to see if they would show.No luck.

All Right!!!

Way to go.
One question though. If I've deleted a file from the list but I download a new copy (or another) will it repopulate the list?
Could be handy if we suddenly take an interest in a particular POI because of travel requirements.
(I know, we'd complain about being given a pound of $20 bills when we wanted $50's.)

Sounds like an echo in here, but thanks for the awesome feature!!!
