Hi,
I keep meaning to include this as a note in a verse post, but I kept forgetting, and then the thing occurs again. Which is that when I read a post of yours, often when I click on “Like” (with the blue star), nothing happens. The star next to the “Like” disappears; but when I check to see if the “Like” registered–well, it hasn’t happened. Of course, I don’t why this is happening (or not happening). Maybe you have experienced this as well. If you’ve had this problem and then got it fixed, maybe you could tell me how. I like the “Like” feature as a way to acknowledge that I’m reading your work (as well). I apologize for the unintentional silence the lack of sign conveys.
I hope each of you is really well.

Oh no, sorry to hear that. Hope it’s just a glitch and fixes itself soon.

It happens for me, too.

It happens when you’ve liked a large amount of posts in a short amount of time. With the chance of it happening increasing while liking posts that have recently gotten a lot of likes in a short time. It’s part of their attempts to prevent spam. That’s what I have been told by a Happiness Engineer of Automattic. It’s not something that will ever change due to the amount of people that buy likes and follows on the WordPress platform.
