Hey there, Favstar users!

A question that we occasionally get is how to set your Twitter Profile URL to your Favstar page. It’s a very simple process, and can be done from either your computer or from mobile apps.

First, get your Favstar URL. This is http://favstar.fm/users/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE. For example, if your username is @FrannyWalsh, your Favstar URL is http://favstar.fm/users/FrannyWalsh. Note the lack of the @ sign in the URL.

Now, you need to add it to your Twitter settings. Log in to your Twitter account, and go to https://twitter.com/settings/profile and add your Favstar URL to the Website field. Then click Save Changes.

While this is easiest to do from the Twitter website on the desktop, some mobile apps support editing your Twitter profile while on the go.

In Twitter for iPhone and Android, tap on Me, View Your Profile, Edit Profile, and add your Favstar URL to the url section.

It’s also possible to do this from some third-party apps. In Tweetbot for iPhone, tap and hold down on one of the two rightmost buttons at the bottom, and select the icon that looks like a person’s head and shoulders. This is your profile page. Then tap Edit on the top right, and the ability to add the URL should be here. This is also possible on Tweetbot for iPad from the Profile button on the left sidebar.

Not all mobile apps support editing your Twitter profile, but if they do, the URL should appear in similar locations. Note that changes to your profile from third-party apps may not show up right away. These instructions should hopefully clear this up for a lot of you.

If there’s anything else we can help explain, please let us know.
