Like button. help?
-
I have a question, i’m not new in this bussiness but i never wanted something like this so I don’t know. If I want a Like Button (from facebook) at every post of mine, I need a domain?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can add buttons for several social media platforms under Settings ->Sharing on your dashboard. For the Facebook button specifically, if you pick the Official button style it will create a like button, the other styles will create a share button: http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/
It is possible to have both a share and a like button, but it’s a bit more technical to do. See this post by timethief for instructions: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/12/06/its-possible-facebook-share-and-like-buttons-at-the-same-time-update-wordpress-com-forums/

Oh, and you do not need a custom domain or an upgrade to do so. All sites on wordpress.com can add these buttons and you don’t need an account on the social media platform to add a button.

I just set up a new blog today. I would like to link my posts to Facebook and Twitter, but the SHARE link is not available under my SETTINGs.
Any ideas what I need to do to get the SHARE link?
Thanks for any help.

@girlscantbet You might be confusing your personal settings with your blog settings. Go to your blog’s dashboard (http://yourblog’saddress.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) In the sidebar, look for Settings. If you hover your mouse over that word, more options should appear. Sharing should be one of them.
