[WP ULike](https://wpulike.com/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme) adds one-click voting to your site so you get a clear signal on what resonates, without signup walls or heavy setup. Install, activate, and voting goes live. Works out of the box, with a simple dashboard and optional customization when you need it. Optional IP anonymization, WordPress personal data export/erase, and flexible logging options help you align the plugin with your privacy policy. WP ULike supports posts out of the box and integrates with WooCommerce, BuddyPress, and bbPress. The frontend uses vanilla JavaScript (no jQuery) and works with major caching plugins. #### Built for **Bloggers & publishers:** See which content earns appreciation, not just traffic. **Online stores:** Learn which products visitors value. **Communities:** Add voting to forums and activity feeds. **Agencies & developers:** Reliable on client sites, quick to deploy, straightforward to maintain. #### Free version: complete, no limits The free plugin is a full voting solution, not a trial.

It extends the free plugin when you need more depth, design, or scale. Both plugins stay installed and active. * **Dislike buttons** and **25+ premium templates** for richer feedback and branded UI * **Advanced analytics** with filters, date ranges, maps, device insights, and CSV/PNG/SVG exports * **View tracking & engagement rates** to measure votes against page views * **Schema.org markup** for star ratings and FAQ rich results * **Display automation & bulk actions** for posts, WooCommerce, EDD, and more * **User profiles, login forms, social login, and share buttons** * **Elementor widgets** and **REST API** for custom builds and integrations * **Advanced GDPR tools**, **email notifications**, and **priority support** [Compare Free vs Pro](https://wpulike.com/upgrade/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme) | [Browse templates](https://wpulike.com/templates/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme) | [Documentation](https://docs.wpulike.com/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme) ## Screenshots [⌊Settings panel: pick a button style and set up voting for posts, comments, and more.⌉⌊Settings panel: pick a button style and set up voting for posts, comments, and more.⌉[ **Settings panel:** pick a button style and set up voting for posts, comments, and more.

Even with the free version there are plenty of options. It does take some time to go through all the options to set things up exactly the way you want them. It’s not perfect, but I haven’t had any major issues with it at all. It also works equally well on the desktop as well as the mobile version. I like the summary report where I can see what posts received likes. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4ead9eaa688f93f8ea99218796670b8df8888ce63e860b002e2bde785275149a? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[mojtaba](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mojtaba-2/)󠁿 [Mojtaba Pedram](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pedramstudio/) 3 сар 18, 2025 خیلی لایک داری داری ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d564f4961fde267ba500237f2c43c186572cf63c119c27020e84a78719edd40c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[素晴らしいプラグイン](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/%e7%b4%a0%e6%99%b4%e3%82%89%e3%81%97%e3%81%84%e3%83%97%e3%83%a9%e3%82%b0%e3%82%a4%e3%83%b3-7/)󠁿 [Po Nang](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tsujigawa/) 3 сар 2, 2025 WP ULike は、WordPress サイトのエンゲージメントを大幅に向上させる素晴らしいプラグ インです。記事、コメント、投稿、さらにはカスタムコンテンツにも「いいね！」機能を 簡単に追加でき、ユーザーの関心を引き付けるのに最適なツールだと思います。 ✅ シンプル かつ強力：インストール後すぐに使え、設定も直感的。初心者でも簡単に導入できます。 ✅ 豊富なカスタマイズ：デザインの変更、アイコンの選択、アニメーション効果など、細かい 調整が可能。✅ 統計・分析機能：どのコンテンツが人気かを詳細に分析でき、サイトの改善 に役立ちます。 無料版でも十分な機能を備えていますが、さらに高機能な Pro バージョン では、より詳細な分析や高度なカスタマイズが可能見たいです。 無料版をもう少し使用し て検討しようと思います。 [ Read all 277 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-ulike/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “WP ULike – Like & Dislike Buttons for Engagement and Feedback” is open source software.
