How to Organize Your monday.com Boards with Favorites

Do you have way too many boards on monday.com? Ever find yourself scrolling and searching, just trying to find the one you actually need? There is a feature that can help you keep these boards organized. In this post, I’ll explain how to use this feature.

How to Use the “Favorite” Feature 

If you look at the left side of your monday dashboard, you’ll see the list of your boards. It works like a table of contents for your workspace. If you’re anything like me, that list can get pretty overwhelming. Most of the time, you only need a few of those boards to get your work done.

Sure, folders can help group things together, but sometimes you just want quick access to the ones you use every single day. That’s where the Favorites feature comes in handy.

Method 1: To favorite a board, just find the little star icon next to the board or dashboard name. Click it once, and the board is now marked as a favorite.

Method 2: There’s another way too. Hover over the board you want to favorite. Then click the three dots (the menu button), and choose “Add to favorites.”

Once you’ve starred a few boards, go to the top-left corner and click on the Favorites tab. It’ll show you the boards that you have added to the favorites. Don’t worry, your other boards are still there. They’re just hidden for now so you can stay focused. 

This is a quick and easy way to keep everything organized and get straight to the boards that matter most. 

How to Remove the Favorite Feature 

Removing a board from your Favorites list is just as easy as adding it. If you ever need to change your favorites, simply click the star icon next to the board again. This will unmark it as a favorite and it will no longer show up in your Favorites section.

Alternatively, you can use the three dots menu. Hover over the board, click the dots, and choose “Remove from favorites.” The board will no longer be in your favorites list.
