Add a Like Button to your Posts or Pages

Enhance your readers’ experience by allowing them to show appreciation for your posts and pages via a Like button.

Requirements

• The Like button is added to a post, page, or template via the Like block.
• The Like block can be used on any site, but it is especially useful if use in a template on a block theme.
• By adding the Like block to one or more of your theme templates, the Like button can appear on multiple pages of your site. For instance, you could add the block to the bottom of your Single Posts template, ensuring the Like button appears at the bottom of all your posts.

Add the Like block

Follow these steps to add the Like block:

1. Open the page, post, or template editor where you want to add the Like block.
2. Click the “+” button to add a new block.
3. Search for “Like” in the block selector.
4. Position the Like block where you want it to appear on your page or post.
5. Save or publish your changes.

Check Jetpack Blocks for detailed instructions on adding blocks.
