How to enable Comment Likes
-
Hi, a quick Google search tells me that I can enable comment likes on my posts by clicking on Tools – Marketing – Sharing buttons, however my margin choices don’t include Marketing under the Tools bar. Why not and how can I get a comment likes button? Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Are you looking at the Tools section in the My Sites menu, or in WP-Admin? The path you refer to above is specific to the WordPress.com interface at My Sites.
If you’re using WP-Admin, that option is at Settings ->Sharing instead.
-
Thanks for that direction. I am in WP-admin. I’ve traced the route you’ve outlined but am still not seeing any options for enabling a “like” button in comments. What should I look for under the Sharing tab? Thanks!
-
Are you looking at https://cliquekits.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing?
The comment likes option is at the bottom of that page, right above the “Save Changes” button.
-
No, that is a defunct web page now. I’m trying to make the change to this blog:
http://thevelvetlemon.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing
Thanks!

You’re posting into the WordPress.com support forum and the site linked to your account is https://cliquekits.wordpress.com/ so the assumption was made that that is the site you are working on. Your other site isn’t hosted here and is using the WordPress.org software where things work differently. Are you following instructions for a WordPress.com site? I don’t think Comments Likes is a standard feature with the WordPress.org software. Perhaps it is something that can be enabled if you had the JetPack plugin linking your site to your WordPress.com account? I’ll tag this thread for staff to confirm if that is the case.

@scrappergrl this may help too, if you’re using Jetpack:
If you need more help with Jetpack, the correct forum for that is here:

Thanks for your help – I did not even realize there were two different WordPress platforms. Sorry to misdirect you.

That’s it, there we go! Thank you! That was a simple fix once I could see where to go and enable it. Thanks for everyone’s help!
