The "Like This" Box.

[richardjm65]

Not that it matters that much, but I'm curious to know why my recent posts do not have the "Like this" box displayed. Have I accidentally disabled it? If so, how do I go about restoring it?

[Thaddeus]

Bit confused here Rich, by my recent posts do you mean posts that you have made?

If so, they have never had that option on them, you can't 'Like' your own posts.

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear. Normally when one makes a post there's a little blue box displayed on the right which says "Like This". It's not appearing in recent posts that I have made. I may be a bit daft and well into my dotage, but I certainly would not click on the "Like This" box for my own posts.

Unless, of course, I came upon it and recognised the brilliance of it but failed to notice it was one of mine. A problem with the aged, I'm afraid.

Do you see the box beside other people's posts?

Yes, I do. For instance, it appears beside your post #4 above, but not beside my post #3 above yours. It also appears on Thaddeus's #3. It's terrible to feel so left out.......

Its perfectly normal. I don't see a like box beside my post either. This is to prevent you giving yourself likes.

Yep, no self gratification allowed on forum time.
