@Aaron
Your theme is interfering with WP Likes, its unnecessarily appending some text to response, which is breaking the JSON.

I love they way the plugin works on your site, but it doesn’t function for me. I’ve just installed 3.0.2 for the first time (replacing wp-postratings), but ajax feedback appears to fail. The proper feedback is only given after a manual page refresh. I’m leaving the failing plugin on the live site for a little bit so you can check it out. I’m running a child theme atop current versions of K2 and wordpress. Any insight would be appreciated.

I want to suggest more words that could be with modified text (like Unlike Button Text, Like Button Text, Like Text, Like Actors). At first I would like these words to be available with their plural forms.
In Bulgarian language you can say “Like” in 3 ways. For example “Харесвам” is for I like, “Харесваш” is for You like and “Харесват” is for They like. Also I would like there to be and the pronouns “You”, “They” and etc.
Also and the Like Actors. They have to be with their singular and plural forms.

Thanks.

I’m using 2.9.1 now, but I’m using the WP Unformatted plugin to remove the starting and ending

tags since, when the tags were there, the HTML I used in some of my posts was invalid. I fixed it the same way you mentioned.

I realize it’s difficult to tell if there is an unclosed p tag, but I thought I’d say that it doesn’t always need to be closed.

Sorry for the ignorance, life’s been tough last month.

“Clicking the like link and loader spins forever”
There is a php error from backend. Check the plugin folder permissions, they should be 755. You can see your server error log for more debugging info.

“Clicking the like link- nothing happens, not even the loader shows up”
This is a frontend javascript error. Mostly caused if jQuery is not being loaded. Check your browser error console for more insight.

@Shane noted. Will try to do something like tumblr in next release

@Idolon From what I have seen on most blogs, the wordpress code doesn’t close its when the plugin is invoked. What version of wordpress you on? The fix is for this is to remove the leading in first ECHO, likes.php file function- wp_likes_render::post().

@Nancy this should be relatively easier to fix. Can I see the page where plain text is appearing when the_excerpt() is called.

@Eric, Dustin What wordpress version you on? you can try adding a call to wp_likes_render_sidebar(null) in your theme file.

Same problem as @Eric above. Any ideas? I have cleared out any plugins that I didn’t need. I’ll try and deactivate and reactivate to see if it will work.

One more thing…wp-likes doesn’t seem to be working on my category pages where I use the_excerpt instead of the_content. When the excerpt is displayed, wp-likes shows as plain text. Is it possible to get it working with excerpt or have wp-likes not show at all with excerpts?

Just wanted to update. Apparently, I had the wrong permissions on the wp-likes folder. Changed them to 755, as the error log on cpanel was telling me, and got all my plugins to work now. Yay! Thanks for the plugin!
