How do I add items to a
list?
There are several ways you can add items to your
lists. On your My Wishpot page, next to the list graphic click, "Add
items". There are 4 ways you can add items to your Wishpot lists.
1. Add items from anywhere on the web: The simplest
way to add items is to download the Wishpot Button. It is simple to add to the
Wishpot Button to your browser and it doesn't contain spyware. Once the Wishpot
button is added, just click the Add to Wishpot Button whenever you're on a
webpage anywhere on the web that has an item you want to add to a list. If you
prefer not to add the browser button, you can manually add a Bookmarklet to
your bookmarks or favorites that works just like the Add to Wishpot
button.
2. Add items you see on Wishpot: If you see
something you like on Wishpot, click the "Add to Wishpot" link beside
the product to add it to one of your lists. In this same way you can add items
you find through our search bar.
3. Add items via your mobile phone: You can add
items to your list using your mobile phone by sending an email to Wishpot. When
you send an e-mail the subject of the message is the wish title, the body of
the message becomes the notes, and the attached picture becomes the wish
graphic. Enter a secret word and Wishpot will generate a new private email
address.
4. Manually add a new item: Click "Add an item
manually"; Select the list you'd like to add the new item to, fill in the
