  Hi, I have a Facebook like button for my blog, but I want my Facebook followers to be able to like individual posts, and it’s only giving them options to share. The only ones who can like each post are other bloggers. Can you help me?

  Hi there,

  The “Like” button which is displayed is for likes within the WordPress.com network and is indeed only for logged-in users of WordPress.com. The other icons which you have activated for other Social Media networks (such as Facebook, Twitter, etc) are allowing your users to like your page. You can verify this by going to Settings >> Sharing and changing the button style from Icon to Official Buttons. You’ll see that the Facebook button now says “Like” and has a counter next to it.

  Wow, that was easy, thank you so much! One more question, since you’ve been so helpful :)
  If there a way for me to see who the likes are from? Meaning, aside from my Facebook page.

  Heya,

  No, other than logging in to Facebook there is no way to see where the Likes are coming from.

  Sorry!
