MikeThomas Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Is it just me and Lebro that cannot find this 'Like' button? I have taken this text from the page Wayne Scott added to the forum regarding the forum update software. 4th paragraph down it says; Fans of social media will notice that the forum now has a simple button to react to posts, rather akin to the "Like" button on Facebook. This allows users to rate posts in technical sections to help novice users identify advice that is supported by more experienced members, for example. This is the little heart on the bottom right of each post. I emailed the TR register office re this on the 3rd October and had no joy. May I suggest when it is located it be replaced next to the 'Quote' button for ease of activation. The 'Like' button is being promoted to identify helpful and good advice, which is what this forum is all about. And whilst doing this could this 'Like' button also be added to other sections of this forum and not just for 'General & Technical'? Best wishes, Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TR NIALL Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hi Mike I think it depends on what type of device your using I’m on Apple iPad and don’t get that facility. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MikeThomas Posted October 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Niall, it could well be a software issue which the forum needs to address, could even be affected by what browser peeps are using. It's a key function of the forum that will help visitors and members navigate and also show their appreciation for the post. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hamish Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 I can’t see any of that on my iPhone. And no option that I can see to change to desk top version like the last platform version. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeThomas Posted October 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Wayne Still not appearing on any of my devices, all I see on that line is the + and quote button, nothing to the right. Is it an internet browser issue? I have had similar issues in the past on a forum I run and my IT guys went it and corrected it allowing other browsers permissions.

SuzanneH Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Wayne, look at your post and Toms post in my photo of your picture and post above and you will see that I do not have the buttons you mention. I am on an I- pad and Roger is on Windows7 and neither of us have the buttons at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stillp Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 I can't see it either. Windows 10 and Chrome. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boxofbits Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Doesn't work on Apple Safari, which explains why I couldn't see it yesterday as using either iPhone or iPad, though Tom could see it, presumably on Windows 7 or 8 maybe? Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Looks to me as if moderators can see it but ordinary mortals can't, unless on a thread that a mod has liked. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
