Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WP ULike – Like Buttons, Voting & Engagement Analytics

No. Voting is one click by default. You can require login in Settings if your site is members-only.

Yes. WP ULike adapts to your theme automatically. Contact support if you need help with styling.

Yes. Compatible with major caching plugins (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed, and others) and popular WordPress plugins including WooCommerce, BuddyPress, bbPress, Elementor, GamiPress, and myCRED.

No. The like button loads minimal code on your pages, and vote responses are lightweight and optimized for speed. The frontend uses vanilla JavaScript with no jQuery. Statistics load in WordPress admin only and use smart caching as your site grows.

We follow WordPress security practices: nonces, hardened AJAX, optional IP anonymization. Details at wpulike.com/security.

Yes. Each site gets its own settings and stats.

Yes. Use the built-in customizer with real-time preview to change colors, icons, and spacing. No code required. Free ships 4 button styles, and Pro adds 20 more plus emoji reactions and star ratings, for 26 in total.

On single posts. Use blocks, shortcodes, or auto-display settings to place buttons elsewhere.

Three ways (same engine, free): 1. Add the Top List block in the block editor. 2. Use the shortcode anywhere (Classic Editor, Elementor, widgets): [wp_ulike_top] 3. Theme template tag: <?php echo wp_ulike_get_top_content( array( 'limit' => 10, 'period' => 'weekly' ) ); ?> Common shortcode examples: * [wp_ulike_top limit="10" period="weekly"] * [wp_ulike_top cat="news,3" days="7" heading="Trending"] (category slug or ID) * [wp_ulike_top tag="recipes" exclude_current="1"] * [wp_ulike_top taxonomy="product_cat" terms="shoes" post_type="product"] * [wp_ulike_top author="12" exclude_cat="uncategorized" show_thumbnail="1"] Filters: cat, tag, taxonomy+terms, exclude_cat, exclude_tag, exclude (post IDs), exclude_current, author, post_type, period / days / hours / date_start+date_end, plus display toggles (show_count, show_thumbnail, show_rank, heading, …).

Open WP ULike → Configuration → Content Types → Posts → Automatic Display and use the Hide Automatic Display On list to select Home / Front Page, Archives, Categories, Search Results, Tags, and Author Page. The button will then only show on individual posts. For block grids (PostX, etc.), also check the Plugin & theme conflicts section on the Help screen.
