Add WordPress Like Button to Blog Posts

QuestionsCategory: Hello SassafrasAdd WordPress Like Button to Blog Posts
Anna Reel asked 5 years ago

Hello, I’ve been trying to figure out how to include the WordPress “like” button at the bottom of my blog posts. Everything is checked correctly in my Jetpack settings to allow for a like button and checked on all my blog posts, but I think my theme (my site uses Hello Sassafras) must be overriding it. Is there a way for me to allow the like button to show up?ย 
Thank you! ๐Ÿ™‚

Can’t think of anything that would cause that in the theme file, but would love to look at it. What is the URL?

Hey, Jennifer! Just checking back in to see if you know a solution to making my like button show up?

I see the share buttons, is the like different?ย

Yes. Many WordPress blogs have a like button you can choose to display at the end of a post so people can show their appreciation even if they don’t know what to say for a comment. It looks like I have everything checked right for it to display, but it’s not showing up.

Would it be helpful if I email you some screenshots of what it usually looks like and perhaps also where I was looking at settings for the like button?

That may help, since I’m not sure what it is. Also if you would like to send over a login I can hop on and trouble shoot, jennifer@helloyoudesigns.com
