Where can I find a list of (more than the current top 10) most liked posts?

  I would like to view a list of the most liked posts – the stats currently available let me see the “most viewed” posts but these aren’t necessarily one and the same…. I have a top posts and pages widget currently installed but this is restricted to a maximum of ten. Thanks in advance.

  Hi there!

  The Top Posts and Pages widget has always been limited to showing only the top 10 posts in the past 48 hours. However, that same widget can display your top liked pages over that same period of time! What that means is that you can use that widget twice in your sidebar, one to show your most viewed posts/pages and one to show your most liked posts/pages. Here’s more information on configuring that widget:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/top-posts-widget/

  I hope that clarifies things! Let me know if you have any questions.

  I have already had a support ticket opened and resolved regarding the top posts/pages widget and am well aware of its limitations. The question that I am asking is “Where can I find a list of my top liked posts”? Not the “top 10 liked” posts that are displayed in the widget that I currently have installed, not the “top viewed” posts that are available in the Stats summaries and certainly not another “top viewed posts widget”. I want a list of posts that shows LIKES in numerical descending order so that I may gain some perspective on viewer preferences.

  The only place where you can see an aggregated list of your liked posts is on your notifications page:
  https://wordpress.com/#!/notifications/

  Clicking the Like link in the sidebar will show a rough chronological order (newest to oldest) list of posts you’ve made that other people have liked.

  I hope that helps!

  Thank you – it’s definitely a step in the right direction! Although the posts are listed in chronological order by date rather than by total number of likes, I will be able to compile the data required. In the meantime, I’ve put in a suggestion in the ideas forum… Thanks once again for your help.
