  I can’t get the ‘like’ button to show up at the bottom of my posts. Can you fix this for me, or tell me how to? I have researched the tutorials and they all indicate this is supposed to happen automatically. My posts do not have a like button. I want a like button, please advise, thanks.

  Hi Kerry,

  The single post page will show the Like button if “Show buttons on Posts” is checked.

  (For example, you can view your “The Original Posers” post and the Like button appears above the comment form.)

  However, if you want the Like button to appear on your Front page, you’ll also need to check “Front Page, Archive Pages, and Search Results” in Settings -> Sharing.

  For more details, please see:

  Add Social Share Buttons

  I hope this helps! :)

  I just wanted to follow up with what I originally said. That setting only applies to the sharing buttons—they won’t apply to the Like button.

  I’m sorry for the confusion. My mistake!
