  Several of you have mentioned the lack of a “like” button. When building this new site, it quickly became apparent that the old plugin was causing speed issues with the site (and I didn’t like the text-link approach), so it had to go.
  
  I’ve found a different plugin with a quite different approach. It’s installed, so let me know what you think.

  That’s interesting. I think I have liked that twice, because it works when not logged in, then again after I logged in?
  
  Actually, I don’t think it’s counting votes when not logged in, but can we see who voted or liked the post?

  It’s interesting to see how this works. Clicking like adds a like, clicking again removes the like.
  Clicking negative after doing a like takes it straight to -1 rather than back to zero, but clicking the negative again gets it to zero effect.
  It’s useful, but anonymous.

  Is the poster notified of what votes the post receives?

    And disliking one that has 2 likes puts it down to zero, but then liking it again puts it back to 2. Doubtless all will become clear as we get used to it.
    
    @Jesss, I’ve liked yours so, if it does notifications you should get one. (Or maybe several for you and @Ed as I’ve been playing with the arrows!)

    No, they have to read it on the post.

    If you click “Like” it gains an up vote. If you then click down, it undoes the up vote (ie removes one point) then gives it a down vote (ie removes one point)
