What happened to the "likes"?

[matt]

Ok, best of all worlds

• I reinstated the heart (post love) extension
• imported thumbs up results to post love
• found the switches to turn off the box at the top of the index…

These developers all put settings in different places, and every time you add an extension you have to go on this easter egg hunt to find them.

Thanks for your patience.

No. When I click on the image so that my tired old eyes can see what is in the photo.

For some reason I am used to hitting escape to get the picture to go away. Now I have to get used to hitting the back arrow.

SPerman and AlexLachance I installed the lightbox, and set 800 pixels as the limit. For example, this one is native 1920x1160. You can click on it and press esc to get out.

Wow! That was quick, for both counts. ><

Now, I would mark matt’s answer correct…but…I can’t find the button!

Thanks Matt,

By the way, clicking on the black part of the screen, outside of the image, also makes it go away. I like that better than Escape.

Same, it is the behavior I am accustomed to on most websites/forums.

[SPerman]

We are back to images appearing in the same window, but now they are just a tiny postage stamp in the middle of the screen. And they no longer appear inline.

[matt]

I think the problem is with posts before a certain date. Help is on the way.

It works but any images previously posted don’t work.
Previous images look like this

but no pic shows up.

[matt]

Jaylin Hochstetler yeah, I’m aware of that, and working on it.

Ok, sounds good.

I know that it’s probably been discussed before and that I’m showing my ignorance but could somebody please explain the significance of the “Filled in heart” and the “Hollow heart”?
Also When I click on the icon sometimes it’s filled in and sometimes it’s hollow. Can that be controlled? Does it even need to be controlled?

Hi Tony,
The hearts are likes. If you like someone’s post it will show hollow to indicate that and increment the like (hearts) counter for that post. If you click again you are taking your like away and then the heart is filled in again and the number of likes (hearts ) for that post is decremented. I think of it as empty heart (or just outline) == a checked checkbox, only prettier.

The filled in heart means you haven’t “liked” the post. When you click on it, it goes to outlined, indicating you’ve clicked it.

[mattpeneguy]

Also Tony Tieuli, if you hover over the number next to the heart you can see who has “liked” the post:

The filled in heart means somebody else liked it. The hollow heart means you liked it. You can unlike something you’ve liked if you want to.

Was there a “feature upgrade”, matt ? I get this error when trying to like a post.

I just liked your post without issue. Maybe its you.

Same thing on my end.

[matt]

I didn’t do anything to the likes. Maybe the server is finally getting overloaded…

Can you guys let me know which forums you’re having trouble with. Maybe go through a bunch of forums and like stuff. There are some permissions which are a little testy, but the group you’re in shouldn’t have seen any changes at all.

I’d have to guess that it is some server issue and will come back for you at some random interval. There is nothing I’ve done to mess with the likes.
