has a blog entry all about it :)

A big thanks to Dong (ddliuhb@gmail.com) for finding a syntactical error that was causing problems for some people. And thanks to Raphael (ressoosnowdon@googlemail.com) for noticing this error and working hard to figure out what it was.

|
|
|
== Installation ==
|
|
|
|
1. Upload the files into a folder named `roses-like-this` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
|
|
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
|
|
3. Place `<?php printLikes(get_the_ID()); ?>` in 'the loop' of your posts wherever you want the 'like this' link to appear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT!!!!
|
|
PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOUR THEME HAS THE FOLLOWING LINE IN ITS HEADER FILE:
|
|
`<?php wp_print_scripts(); ?>`
|
|
|
|
...Most high quality themes should have this already but if you're writing your own theme or using a custom theme that doesn't include this line, please make sure you include it in header.php, somewhere between `<head>` and `</head>`

= How can I make the 'like this' link look prettier? =
|
|
|
|
With CSS :) Here is the code that I use:
|
|
`a.done {
|
|
background:url("http://yoururl.com/wordpress/plugins/roses-like-this/action_check.png") bottom right no-repeat;
|
|
padding-right:18px;
|
|
color:#8bcb46;
|
|
}`
|
|
|
|
= The javascript is not working! =
|

= The javascript is STILL not working!!! =
|
|
Do you call get_header() in your theme? This is also needed, although almost certainly there anyway.
|
|
|
|
= The javascript is STILL not working AGAIN!!! =
|
|
The plugin expects to find the javascript file in a folder called `roses-like-this` under /plugins. So if you have named the folder something else, you're probably getting a 404 error!
|
|
|
|
To fix, you can either rename your folder `roses-like-this` OR you can edit the `likethis.php` file and edit line `112` roses-like-this/ to yourfoldername/
