  I deactivated the LIKE button on some recent posts, for a reason, and that option doesn’t show on the page or in the blog reader I use. But I still received emails from WP telling me that people LIKED those posts. So I checked the WordPress blog reader and see that the LIKE option is there on my posts.

  Why does that reader not observe the wishes of the blogger?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The like button in the Reader cannot be disabled by us bloggers. Everyone who has a WordPress.com/Gravatar account who is logged in to WordPress.com has the like button on their Admin bar and can still use it.
