  Would be nice to be able to show the LIKE button on the first page below each post. Currently the only way the reader sess this is if they click on the link to the post. Be nice for them to be able to like a post without having to drill down into each and every time.

  This is already possible but frankly I am aware there are “like” spammer around. It’s my personal preference that people actually read the entire post and even comment on it before clicking the like or share buttons.

  I can’t see the buttons on the front page.
  Make sure to select “Posts and index pages” for “Show sharing buttons on” setting. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/

  timethief,

  Thanks so much! Didn’t think of the spam angle. Good point!

  You’re welcome. I’m aware of “like button spamming” as I answer questions on this support forum.
