Question "Add to Favorites" not working?

I've been trying to add a few blogs to my favorites. When I click the little star at the top, I'm redirected to my CP, but the blog doesn't get added. Is this a bug or am I not doing it correctly?

Thanks

double check your control panel: from there, go to widgets, then select the favorite blogs link. that should tell you if the blog got added to your 'favorites' on SA.

i think the confusing part is that some people might assume that clicking the link to 'add to my favorites' will add the blog to the favorites/bookmarks within their browser, and aren't aware that the favorites capability is actually within the blogs.savingadvice.com site itself.

Tina - I was expected to see the blog in my PF favorites, not my Firefox favorites.

When I look into the widgets thing, I get a message saying:
You don't currently have any favorites.

To get started, visit a blog you like, and click the 'Add to my Favorites' button at the top.

Nate - What does line delimiter missing mean over on the community blog pages? I'm getting a little error message at the top of the blog posts. Is this me and I've goofed or is it system wide?

AND - when I click on the link to my name after posting in someone's blog instead of taking me to my blog it hooks me to the main page...is that the way it's supposed to be? I don't remember it used to being that way???
