Some of you may have now spotted this... it's now possible to "like" posts! You should see the little like button next to each post. This allows you to add your appreciation for a post perhaps when you haven't got a tonne to say but just want to let the poster know you're reading.



This is a new feature, it may be buggy. Please post bugs here. If you can't see it, try doing a "Hard Refresh" on your browser, or alternatively clear your history.

Hope you like it.

Edit: If you cannot see the button please ensure you have cleared your cache.

Nice one Fran (still searching for thumbs up emoji)

A hard refresh is usually shift and F5 for those that don't know

Edit .... Oooh you can unlike it if you change your mind!

Yes, you won't have a like button on your own posts, same way you won't have a thumbs-up on your own posts!

You should still see it on your screen, just alongside other's posts not your own. Are you not seeing the Like button at all?

I see the like button and I see if other people have liked a post, but when I click on the button it doesn't tell me that I have liked that post.

Does the "Like" button change to "Unlike" ?

Also it should say at the bottom of the post you liked that "You & xxxx" liked this

It seems to be another browser specific thing.

I usually log in with Firefox - and it's with Firefox that nothing seemed to happen when I clicked on the like button.  I'm on Safari now and the like/unlike thing is working.
