Hi there,
It looks like you have Likes disabled on your site, so your posts don’t display a Like button.
However, people can still like your posts via the WordPress.com Reader, even if it’s turned off on your site itself. But you won’t see any notifications of those Likes in that case.
-
Thank-you and understood.
Where do I enable likes please?
Doesn’t seem to be obvious for some reason. -
Like settings are in the same place as the setting for sharing buttons.
To enable Likes globally on your site, go to Tools ->Marketing ->Sharing buttons. That will take you to https://wordpress.com/marketing/sharing-buttons/deuteronomy4verse2.wordpress.com
https://wordpress.com/support/likes/#turn-likes-on-off-across-your-site
For the posts already published on your site, you might also need to edit the posts individually to enable Likes on those posts. If you edit a post, click on the green Jetpack icon top-right, and then you’ll see the Like and Sharing settings for the post at the bottom of the sidebar:
Or if you use the classic editor in WP-Admin, you should see the Likes and Shares module at the bottom of the editor:
-
One more thing: enabling Likes now won’t retroactively send you notifications for the likes already received via the Reader. But you should see notifications for any new likes that come into your site after you enable this.

Thank-you for your reply, but my Sharing Buttons page is blank except for “No ads with WP Premium”.
Understood about going to each old post. -
Hello there,
Thank-you for your reply, but my Sharing Buttons page is blank except for “No ads with WP Premium”.
That sounds odd – are you using any adblockers on the browser by any chance?
If yes, may I advise that this be deactivated and see if these options appear please.
