It would be amazing if there was a favorite bar along the top of the WHM interface where we could add links from the left menu. With session keys in the url browser favorites don't work so well.
Favorites section in the menu WHM and channel
It would be nice to have a favorites menu created by right clicking a menu entry and placing it in or deleting from the favorites menu.

WHM - add ability to modify top shortcuts
You can modify /var/cpanel/customizations/includes/global_header.html.tt to control the shortcuts that appear at the top of cPanel, but according to support, there's no supported way to do this for the shortcuts at the top of WHM (where it has News Change Log Logout). It would be nice if there was a supported way of doing this rather than modifying /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/templates/menu/topframe.tmpl and reapplying your changes if it gets overwritten.
This could either be the ability to override the file or some simple interface in WHM where you can edit shortcut links that show up there and then the template file reads that data and prints out the links.
WHM Dashboard with favorite links to any section
As a server administrator I would like to be able to define a list of my 'Favorites' in the WHM interface (even when deep into different pages and sub-pages of the interface) similar to bookmarks, so that I can quickly and easily access my most common interfaces without having to re-authenticate.
Customizeable WHM Home Screen
As a system administrator, I would like to be able to customize the categories and links on the WHM Home screen to include the categories and links I use most often. I just upgraded to WHM 76, and the current redesign of the Home screen includes items that I rarely use, and none of those I use on a daily basis.
Restore homepage with ALL buttons like before v76.0.4
Please Restore the WHM homepage with ALL buttons like it was before v76.0.4.
This limited selection of buttons make no sense. These are definitely NOT the buttons I use frequently.
Or better as a Feature Request: let me as a WHM user decide what buttons / functions I want to see and use on the homepage.
The latest WHM interface is TERRIBLE!!
for years it has been easy to navigate WHM. Why put the least used icons in your primary real estate without giving an easy way to customize what "WE" use most. Who put "Reseller" options over "Security" as the most used icons?
Go back to this!
setting to change which WHM interface is default
As a cPanel user I would like a touch file (or config setting) to change which WHM interface is shown by default so the icons I use to navigate the WHM interface are not hidden.

Hi everyone!
We've replaced the Top Tools section with the Favorites section in the WHM Home interface. WHM Favorites is a new feature in v106 that allows a WHM user to select their favorite WHM features into its own group. The following capabilities are possible for any WHM user:
In v108, we will add your favorites in the WHM left navigation so that it is always available when you need it.

How would you view this feature being implemented specifically?
Would you want the link bar to persist on *every* page you navigated to within WHM? Should it only appear when visiting the Home/initial page of WHM?
As much detail as you can provide on how you see it implemented and utilized would further assist in potentially gaining interest/votes from other customers. It would also help us (cPanel) better understand your intended use cases.

Thank you for the response.
To elaborate - in my mind it would work like a bookmark bar on the browser. As you use WHM you would have the option to drag or somehow add links to a fixed bar across the top. There are already two rows of information in the header, and if it was possible to collapse the current information to a single row then this would not require additional height.
In the attached you can see where I've swapped the header row ordering and merged the content to allow for a second "Bookmark" row. The second row would just be a long list of whatever links you placed there. I feel the ability to sort the bookmark order would be necessary with the option to drag or somehow remove again the bookmark.

For anyone interested in this idea, here is an example of a bookmarklette that will open phpMyAdmin from an active WHM login.
(open('//yourserver.com:2087/'+String).replace(/^.*(cpsess\d+).*$/,'$1')+'/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/index.php'));

One of the things we have considered in the past was to replace the main WHM Index page area (the tiles with icons in them) with a page that's much more useful for system administrators. Your idea of a configurable Favorites section would be something that could go on that.

Which kinds of things would you like to put in that area?

Links to things I use often like Create Account, List Accounts, and Change Site's IP Address. Perhaps also PhpMyAdmin

There is discussion in https://features.cpanel.net/topic/replace-the-whm-index-page-with-the-list-accounts-page regarding how we could better use the WHM Index Page that you may want to participate in too.

That's good too, but not as handy as being able to get to commonly-used links from anywhere without having to go back to the home page.

The way I see this would be a “Add to favorates” link on each main page in WHM so users can easily add links to the pages they use the most.

It would be great to have an option in the WHM that can allow us to drag and drop the icons we would like onto the top section for easy access. They would also remain in the normal section, so duplicates basically. Also if we can even add icons used by plug ins like the app installer's actual apps, that would be great too! Also if we can choose the name of the section that would help as well.
Anything to help the user has a more simple time saving process is a big win!

Would really like to see this also.
Display the favourite links at the top of the home page as well as maybe a drop menu at the top of each screen?

for me it is a good page if you first started the server; but after working with the product for years this is not really the best layout..at least the old on showed the major categories which was a tab better than the layout after the 76..0.4 upgrade.

A customizeable home screen would be nice, but it will likely take time to implement. Until then the cPanel developers should return the home screen to v.74 style. That should be easy to add to the next build.

Why would someone mark this down? 🙄
I stumbled across this as I was looking if it's possible to set a default home screen. 9 times out of 10 I login to WHM, I want the list accounts screen, I should be able to set this as the default landing page.
The new home screen does help out on this, as now I don't have to search on the left. however, I should be able to just search for the hosting account I want as my first action.

Hey all! While this specific feature hasn't been updated, we have added a way to switch between the new look and the historical look in the WHM interface:
We're still planning on adding the customization, but I wanted to let you know we'd made this small pivot as well!

What happened to this? I have version 94 and nothing appears to have changed. This is not a complex task to complete, but none of the team have responded here about what can be done about the OP.

In v106, we are building a feature that would allow a WHM user to pin their favorite interfaces to the top of WHM Index in Jupiter. Please share your thoughts on this feature idea and let me know if it does not serve your needs for this feature request. The following 5 requests are being tracked for this implementation:
