“Favorite” counter/ count

    It doesn’t seem the posts show the number of “favorites” they receive? Even just a simple tally with the number?

    Unless I’m wrong? Is there a way to get it to show “likes” / “favorites” and if so is there a way to expand the feature to have 2 types of “likes” for example star and circle, with counts for each?

    Thanks,
    JM

    Favorites are bookmarks, not likes.

    There are plugins for likes, such as

    I haven’t tried it but there’s also BuddyPress Compliments.

    Just an update on this thread.

    At the moment, there aren’t any plugins for this. The BuddyPress Like plugin is broken (it breaks WordPress themes on install and isn’t being supported). I tried others as well. The BuddyPress Compliments seems like a great plugin, but only allows users to compliment other members (not compliment posts). It’s interface and options, useability is great though.

    It does what many people are requesting (on WordPress as well as this forum): lets people add “likes” to posts AND lets people customize the button that does the “liking” (I mean you can name the object and set an image for it).

    Is there any plans within BuddyPress to add a “like” function (which tallys the likes on posts)? (If so, Compliments is a great model.)
