Why would a "Liked" appear on a blog I follow, when I didn't click the button?

  On one particular blog I follow, it always shows the yellow “Liked” icon when I haven’t clicked any of the “Like” buttons in my reader or on the original post. It’s not a huge deal, I usually like the blogger’s posts anyway, it’s just baffling.

  Thanks for any help :)

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

  Were do you see the yellow “Liked” icon? In Blogs I Follow?

  Thanks for your reply, and yes, in Blogs I Follow, as well as on the blog itself. It’s like the blog is automatically “Liked”.

  That’s certainly not to be expected. I will tag the thread for Staff attention.

  Hi there,

  That is strange. I just took a look at your Reader and found the first like was for Geo San’s blog. However, there were newer posts from that blog that was not liked. Is that the site you are talking about?

  Let me know if that is not it!

  That’s the one, Ms. Grace, and thank you for your reply. I haven’t intentionally “Liked” any post from my reader for a couple of days, including the”Pulpy Neurons” one from Geo Sans. When I checked, I noticed the same thing you did…several recent posts from him that weren’t Liked. Maybe whatever gremlin that was responsible is busy elsewhere…lol. Thanks again for your attention to this, and if it happens again I’ll let you know.
