How do I create a wanted list using the part number? I tried "add item"
after I created a wanted list but can't figure out how to create a list with
all the part numbers I need. I had large orders and after applying the orders
it shows I have everything but still missing some. Would like to just order the
missing blocks. Thank you

1) you need to learn categories first. E.g. what are ? If you pass
this then:
2) add item, set item type=part, wait for categories to populate...
3) select the right category from the list
4) in the search field start typing the part number. The bottom list starts narrowing
as you type ...
5) select the item you foubd
6) select color
7) select remaining items in the bottom row. At least decide the QTY

Only works good if you have many items in a few categories and the categories
are trivial to know.

If you have only part numbers, just
1) open https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=
2) search for the item number alone
2) click it to load its page, await loading
3) use the tiny blue link "add to my wanted list" in the center
4) in the modal vox, select the list, compile qty.... finally Add.

I usually prefer this way because the loaded page says a lot at a glance: if
other molds could be usable, if the color exists, if it is readily avaiable.
Its slowee tough
