The full changelog:
- New feature: blog posts can now be liked.
- New feature: you can no show an excerpt of the liked content.
- Option added: disable posting likes to the activity stream.
- Option added: show avatars of likers instead of names.

So get it now through the automatic update, or download the new version.

1) Where can I choose a button with a yellow star?
2) When I click on “like it” button, it turns into a “- (1)”. That is confusing, as looks like it says that 1 person disliked it. And I see there no option to view who else liked/disliked it.
Thanks for getting in touch. I have sent you an email so I can help track down the problem!
I just upgraded to WP 3.0.2 and this plugin doesnt work. I dont see thimbs up or down any where
I’ve sent you an email so we can sort out the problem. However, I’ve tested the plugin with 3.0.2 and it seems to work fine…
Thanks Hempsworth!
Just updated, so far so good… more on the 0.9 post.
I installed BuddyPress Like on WP 3.0.3/BuddyPress 1.2.7. I use a custom theme which is BuddyPress enabled. While the plugin seems to work fine with BuddyPress default theme, the like box does not show up with my custom theme on article view (single.php). Is there anything to take care of beside making sure the is in place?
Thanks for any suggestion, Michael

Hi, I really like this plugin. With WordPress 3.1.2 and BuddyPress 1.2.8, the only problem I have is that this plugin works brilliantly in Firefox (and all other worthwhile browsers), but not in IE (any version) and our school is locked into that terrible browser. Anyone else found this problem? Any solutions out there?
Problem sorted. My apologies. I had Lightbox 2 plugin’s JavaScript interfering with this (and other) plugin. All works like clockwork now. Looking forward to next updates to this plugin.
Is it possible to traslate this plugin?How can i do?
Thank’s a lot
I’m sorry..it was simple but i didn’t see plugin settings!
