I don't wish to dampen your persecution complex but...the 'Like' button doesn't appear on your own posts, Yorkie.

Thanks for that, I was hoping to congratulate myself a few times on each post!  Foiled again!   ZXZ

I can no longer see how many likes that members have, is that deliberate?

Yes.  We're trying different settings to see what works best.

The system wasn't broken, worked well, so why change it?    ZXZ

I thought you weren't in favour of the system at all?

My answer is quite simple, I was always taught never to play with buttons, so I won't.

We introduced this because some folk who post images aren't sure if they should continue, partly because of a lack of feedback. As we know a lot of people might browse and enjoy the images but don't post their appreciation, and we though a simple button is easier to click than making an entire posting. It's all a bit trial and error, I'm afraid.

I posted yesterday about council mergers but my post did not receive the like logo.

Why was that, Ian?

In fact, this post does not have one either (so far).

You can't see your own, Bri.  Only others can.

If someone 'likes' your post it will show to the right of the Like button for others and in the bottom of the post in question, where you'll be able to see it.
