Site Update - extended Likes

[Admin]

The "Like" system on the site previously just had a link in each post that enabled a user to "Like" a post made by another user. This functionality has now been extended to provide a more broader range of "Likes" that gives some more meaning to the reason of why you may like a post.

 

In the bottom right of every post you will now see a group of icons that you can click to add a "Like" to the post:

 

[ATTACH=full]2[/ATTACH]

 

If you hover your mouse over each of the icons, a popup box will show what type of "Like" each one is:

 

[ATTACH=full]3[/ATTACH]

 

On a User's Profile Page you can also see a breakdown on the different "Likes" they have received and given:

 

[ATTACH=full]4[/ATTACH]

 

There are other areas where the "Likes" are incorporated into the site like your "Alerts" will alert you to individual "Likes" that other users have given your posts and a full list of all the "Likes" that you have been received and given are shown in your settings pages.

 

All "Likes" are like users giving your posts small positive comments and we hope you will enjoy seeing them on your posts, and naturally if you feel another User's post warrants a specific type of "Like", maybe because their post is funny or helpful or informative, then please click on the relevant Like Icon and encourage them to post more of the same.

 

Enjoy!
