Hoping someone can help. All I need to to create a hotkey (or icon) on my iPhone5s...

for a webpage that doesn't have one. I want it to take me directly to Discussionist. I made one for DU, which works great, but that was a long time ago. I can't remember how I did it now, but it was easy peasy. Got my help on that from someone here, so I hope someone can remind me how. Thank you a bunch!

...on an iPhone, open Safari and browse to the location your want to be the page that opens.

Tap the "Share" icon at the bottom of the screen (looks like a square with an arrow pointing up).
Tap the "Add to Home Screen" icon.
Give the icon a name like "Discussionist".
Tap on the word "Add" in the upper right hand corner.
The icon will be added to your home screen.
