*NEW SITE FEATURE* Like Button
Hi everyone,
We have just added a new "Like Button" feature to the site.
A lot of members have been asking for this for quite a while now.
Screenshots:
There have been many times when I have liked or appreciated someone's post, but haven't had the time to reply.
Now with just the click of a button, you can show your appreciation for a particular post.
It's quite a detailed forum Extension with many additional features and counters, hence the delay installing it.
Once you have clicked on the green thumbs up button, it will turn red. This is not a dislike button, but an option to remove the like.
You cannot like your own posts.
As always, any feedback is greatly appreciated.

I get a lot of notifications of people liking posts.
Is it possible for the notifications are only for my posts? Like facebook.

There you go. It's showing notifications when other people like other people's posts.

I'm fairly sure your notifications are only related to your posts in this instance. (I liked a few of yours as a test)...
You can actually change your notification settings here under Board Preferences:
ucp.php?i=ucp_notifications&mode=notification_options
Just uncheck: Someone liked your post and Someone removed a like for your post

Just a question
Are the amount of "likes" a person can click on, in a day/24 hr period capped?
