What the author says it does
Like buttons and post reactions for WordPress
Most visitors read and leave without commenting, so you never learn what they liked. WP ULike adds one-click voting that takes no effort to use, giving you a clear signal on what resonates. No signup walls, no vote limits, no heavy setup.
Install, activate, and voting goes live on posts. Open WP ULike → Statistics inside WordPress to see totals, top content, growth tips, and when your audience is most active.
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.
Engagement analytics, built in
Pageviews tell you who showed up. Reactions tell you who cared. WP ULike ships a real dashboard inside WordPress, so you don’t need a separate analytics tool to read it.
Free includes Overview, growth tips, engagement reports, when-to-publish insights, and vote logs. Dark mode and focus mode are built in.
Pro (optional) adds who liked each post, deeper audience and content reports, and full WooCommerce store insights.
Built for
Bloggers & publishers: See which content earns appreciation, not just traffic.
Online stores: Learn which products visitors value.
The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.
Questions the author answers
Do visitors need to register or login to like content?
No. Voting is one click by default. You can require login in Settings if your site is members-only.
Does WP ULike work with any theme?
Yes. WP ULike adapts to your theme automatically. Contact support if you need help with styling.
Is WP ULike compatible with other plugins and caching?
Yes. Compatible with major caching plugins (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed, and others) and popular WordPress plugins including WooCommerce, BuddyPress, bbPress, Elementor, GamiPress, and myCRED.
Will it slow down my site?
No. The like button loads minimal code on your pages, and vote responses are lightweight and optimized for speed. The frontend uses vanilla JavaScript with no jQuery. Statistics load in WordPress admin only and use smart caching as your site grows.
Is WP ULike secure?
We follow WordPress security practices: nonces, hardened AJAX, optional IP anonymization. Details at wpulike.com/security.
Can I use WP ULike on a multisite setup?
Yes. Each site gets its own settings and stats.
