The Add to Favorites widget in Dynamic Content for Elementor allows users to mark any post, page, or product as a favorite, providing a simple yet effective way to create personalized experiences on your site. This feature can be scoped to browser cookies (for guests) or user metadata (for logged-in users).

Scope Choose between User (favorites stored in user meta) or Cookie (favorites stored in browser cookies).

- User: Requires the visitor to be logged in.
- Cookie: Works for all visitors, with an optional cookie expiration (in days).

Key The Key is the unique name for identifying a favorites list in UserMeta or browser Cookies.

- Important: If you change the key, previously saved preferences will no longer be recognized (they remain saved but associated with the old key).
- It is strongly recommended to use lowercase, use underscores <code>_</code> instead of spaces, and avoid special characters.

Allow Removal Enables users to remove a post from favorites. If disabled, only the "Add" action is available.

- Add to Favorites text and icon
- Remove from Favorites text and icon (if removal is enabled)
- Added to Favorites text (if removal is disabled)

Button Settings Define button type (<code>Default</code>, <code>Info</code>, <code>Success</code>, <code>Warning</code>, <code>Danger</code>), size, icon alignment (left/right), and styling, such as border-radius, typography, padding, and hover effects.

- Optionally hide the button for non-logged-in users (only when the scope is set to User).
- Optionally redirect visitors to a custom login URL when interaction is tried.

The widget provides extensive design flexibility through the Style tab:

Text and background colors (for Add/Remove states and Hover)

- Button alignment
- Text and background colors (for Add/Remove states and Hover)
- Border, border radius, box shadow
- Text padding
- Icon size and spacing

An optional Favorites Counter can be displayed next to the button:

Add a separator and adjust its width, padding, and spacing

- Display a dynamic number of favorites
- Choose counter position (left/right)
- Add a separator and adjust its width, padding, and spacing
- Set an icon for visual enhancement

The counter displays how many users (in User scope) or how many cookie-based interactions (in Cookie scope) have saved a given post as a favorite—similar to a Facebook Like button.

In Cookie scope, the counter may not be completely reliable. A visitor who deletes and re-adds a favorite (after clearing cookies) may unintentionally increase the count multiple times.

Use <code>[dce-favorites key="your_key" get="count"]</code> shortcode anywhere in your content to retrieve the number of saved favorites.
