## 설명

#### Like buttons and post reactions for WordPress

Most visitors read and leave without commenting, so you never learn what they liked.
[WP ULike](https://wpulike.com/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme)
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.

**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. No caps on votes, posts,
or usage.

Included with free:

 * Like buttons on posts via auto-display, `[wp_ulike]` shortcodes, or the **ULike
   Button** block
 * **Top List** block and `[wp_ulike_top]` shortcode to showcase your most popular
   posts, comments, users, BuddyPress activities, and bbPress topics
 * **Statistics dashboard** with Overview, growth tips, engagement reports, publish-
   timing insights, vote logs, dark mode, and focus mode
 * **Button customizer** with real-time preview, four button styles, colors, icons,
   and RTL support
 * **Auto-display settings** for posts, comments, BuddyPress, bbPress, and WooCommerce
 * **Settings backup** (JSON export/import) and **Site Health** table check
 * **Privacy tools** for user-linked vote data and optional IP anonymization

Regular updates, WordPress coding standards, and security best practices (nonces,
hardened AJAX, and more).

#### WP ULike Pro

Pro is optional. It extends the free plugin when you need more depth or design. 
Both plugins stay installed and active.

 * **Swap likes for emoji reactions or 5-star ratings** and pick the reaction style
   that fits each page
 * **See who liked each post** and how engaged readers really are (top fans, engagement
   vs page views)
 * **Know what to publish next** with content intelligence, heatmaps, and top-country
   reports
 * **Compare likes to sales** with full WooCommerce store reports
 * **20 more button styles and Display Automation** to match your brand and place
   buttons without code
 * **Rating and FAQ schema** published as schema.org markup so search engines can
   read your ratings

Need profiles, share buttons, bulk vote tools, Elementor widgets, or REST API? Pro
includes those too. [Compare Free vs Pro](https://wpulike.com/upgrade/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme)

## FAQ

### 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.

### Can I customize the button appearance?

Yes. Use the built-in customizer with real-time preview to change colors, icons,
and spacing. No code required. Free ships 4 button styles, and Pro adds 20 more 
plus emoji reactions and star ratings, for 26 in total.

### Where do like buttons appear by default?

On single posts. Use blocks, shortcodes, or auto-display settings to place buttons
elsewhere.

### How do I show a list of my most popular posts?

Three ways (same engine, free):
 1. Add the **Top List** block in the block editor.
2. Use the shortcode anywhere (Classic Editor, Elementor, widgets): `[wp_ulike_top]`
3. Theme template tag: `<?php echo wp_ulike_get_top_content( array( 'limit' => 10,'
period' => 'weekly' ) ); ?>`

Common shortcode examples:
 * `[wp_ulike_top limit="10" period="weekly"]` * `[wp_ulike_top
cat="news,3" days="7" heading="Trending"]` (category slug or ID) * `[wp_ulike_top
tag="recipes" exclude_current="1"]` * `[wp_ulike_top taxonomy="product_cat" terms
="shoes" post_type="product"]` * `[wp_ulike_top author="12" exclude_cat="uncategorized"
show_thumbnail="1"]`

Filters: `cat`, `tag`, `taxonomy`+`terms`, `exclude_cat`, `exclude_tag`, `exclude`(
post IDs), `exclude_current`, `author`, `post_type`, `period` / `days` / `hours`/`
date_start`+`date_end`, plus display toggles (`show_count`, `show_thumbnail`, `show_rank`,`
heading`, …).

### Like buttons appear on my homepage, archive, or PostX block grid. How do I hide them?

Open **WP ULike  Configuration  Content Types  Posts  Automatic Display** and use
the **Hide Automatic Display On** list to select **Home / Front Page**, **Archives**,**
Categories**, **Search Results**, **Tags**, and **Author Page**. The button will
then only show on individual posts. For block grids (PostX, etc.), also check the**
Plugin & theme conflicts** section on the **Help** screen.

### Can I use emoji reactions or star ratings instead of like buttons?

Yes, with Pro. The free plugin ships 4 like-button styles. Pro adds emoji reactions
and 5-star ratings as their own reaction types, so you can pick what fits each page.
[Browse the templates](https://wpulike.com/templates/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme).

### Does it support dislike or down votes?

Two-way voting uses a Pro template. The free plugin ships 4 like-button styles, 
and Pro adds up/down, arrow, thumb, and Positive/Negative templates when you want
both signals.

### What’s the difference between WP ULike Free and Pro?

Free includes like buttons, a full statistics dashboard (Overview, reports, when-
to-publish insights, logs, and tips), blocks, customizer, auto-display settings 
in Settings, backup, and privacy tools, with no vote limits. Pro adds emoji reactions
and star ratings, who liked each post, engagement rates vs page views, full geography
and content intelligence, WooCommerce sales comparisons, 20 more button styles, 
Display Automation, profiles, share buttons, and more. [See the full comparison](https://wpulike.com/upgrade/?utm_source=wp-repo&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=readme).
Both plugins stay active together.

### If I buy Pro, do I lose my existing likes?

No. Pro installs beside the free plugin and reads the same data. Your existing votes,
counts, and settings carry over untouched. Pro also comes with a 14-day money-back
guarantee.

## 변경이력

#### 5.2.2

 * Added: `[wp_ulike_top]` shortcode (and template tag) for Top List — same popular-
   content filters as the block.
 * Added: Editable empty-state messages in Settings for Top List / widgets, plus
   BuddyPress and Ultimate Member like notices (WPML-ready).
 * Added: More flexible Button Customizer — dimensions, padding, margin, alignment,
   Icon Color (per state), and a dedicated Counter section, all with per-device (
   desktop / tablet / mobile) controls.
 * Added: Toast Customizer for notice layout and placement (size, padding, radius,
   corner position, offsets) with live preview.
 * Added: Likers Customizer options (including avatar size) with a corrected Likers
   Box / tooltip preview.
 * Improved: Customizer preview safety (no accidental votes/navigation in the iframe)
   and clearer Active / Removed state styling.
 * Improved: Settings Field Browser for translation fields, with search fixes; Optiwich
   RTL and panel polish.
 * Improved: Faster legacy-table cleanup after Pulse storage upgrade on large sites(
   no slow COUNT(*) re-scans).
 * Improved: Database install/repair now surfaces specific MySQL errors on Overview
   and Site Health instead of a generic failure.
 * Fixed: Escaped quotes in translation strings used as form defaults and i18n/JSON
   data.

#### 5.2.1

 * Fixed: **Post Types** now correctly limits Singular auto-display. With the default
   Posts-only setting, like buttons no longer appear on pages (and other unlisted
   types).
 * Improved: Clearer auto-display labels for Singular and Post Types in Settings.
 * Improved: Admin RTL compatibility and several small stability fixes.

#### 5.2.0

 * Added: **Pulse**, a faster, unified like-storage engine. New installs start on
   Pulse automatically; existing sites keep working with an optional background 
   upgrade.
 * Added: **Storage upgrade** screen (WP ULike  Storage Upgrade) with progress bar,
   pause/resume, finish step, and optional cleanup of old tables. WP-CLI support:`
   wp ulike pulse status|start|pause|sync|verify|enable|drop-legacy`.
 * Added: **Site Health** integration (Tools  Site Health) for tables, storage/migration,
   leftover log-table cleanup, and a copyable Info dump. Help links there for actions.
 * Improved: Statistics, top lists, and vote logs now route through Pulse queries
   with mode-aware reads and a versioned, scoped query cache.
 * Improved: GDPR export/erase now covers Pulse rows alongside legacy logs.
 * Removed: Deprecated post rating value API (`wp_ulike_get_rating_value` now returns`
   null` with a deprecation notice).
 * Fixed: Multiple stability and performance fixes across admin and frontend.
 * Fixed: PHP 8 fatal (`Unknown named parameter $id`) on every vote when `wp_ulike_after_process`
   callbacks run. The vote saved, but AJAX returned 500.

#### 5.1.2

 * Fixed: Minor issue with the new Statistics dashboard.

#### 5.1.1

 * Added: **Statistics dashboard**. Open **WP ULike  Statistics** for a home screen
   with your key numbers up front.
 * Added: **Overview**. See total engagement, today’s activity, and how this week
   compares to last week.
 * Added: **Growth tips**. Short suggestions based on your data (momentum, milestones,
   and helpful nudges as your site grows).
 * Added: **Engagement reports**. Charts and top-content lists for posts, comments,
   and other content types you use.
 * Added: **When to publish**. Peak hours and time windows so you can see when people
   vote most.
 * Added: **WooCommerce store reports** in Statistics (Pro) when WooCommerce is 
   active.
 * Added: **Logs**. Browse and manage vote history by content type.
 * Added: **Dashboard settings**. Turn announcement popups on or off, pick light/
   dark mode, and adjust sidebar options.
 * Added: **Focus mode**. Hide the WordPress admin chrome for a distraction-free
   stats view.
 * Improved: Faster, smoother navigation between Overview, reports, and logs.
 * Improved: Clearer empty states and more reliable vote counts.
 * Fixed: Several minor admin issues.

#### 5.1.0

 * Improved: Redesigned Settings and Customizer panels for better UX.
 * Fixed: Several small issues for a more reliable experience.

#### 5.0.7

 * Added: One-click **Repair database tables** on Help when tables are missing.
 * Improved: Frontend init batches DOM updates with `requestAnimationFrame` for 
   AJAX-loaded content (BuddyPress, bbPress, load-more).
 * Improved: Button styles resist theme width/transform conflicts; bbPress layout
   fixes.
 * Improved: Settings import on Help now asks for confirmation before overwriting.

#### 5.0.6

 * Removed: Legacy settings framework from the plugin. It was previously kept for
   WP ULike Pro post metaboxes.
 * Improved: Settings and Customizer panels now follow your WordPress admin color
   scheme (light, dark, and high-contrast).
 * Improved: Smoother voting and admin behavior under the hood.
 * Fixed: Several small issues for a more reliable experience.

#### 5.0.5

 * Added: **Help** screen under WP ULike with quick status, shortcuts, documentation
   links, troubleshooting, and settings backup/restore.
 * Added: Optional feedback when deactivating the plugin (Plugins screen).
 * Added: **Site Health** test for WP ULike database tables.
 * Fixed: No longer redirects to the plugin screen right after activation.
 * Fixed: Minor admin and usability issues reported by users.

#### 5.0.4

 * Added: **Top List** Gutenberg block, a ranked leaderboard for most liked posts,
   comments, users, BuddyPress activities, and bbPress topics.
 * Added: Declared and verified compatibility with **WordPress 7.0** (Armstrong),
   including Block API v3 and the iframed block editor.
 * Improved: Deferred frontend script loading and safer block rendering.
 * Improved: Admin notices restyled for WordPress 7 with a minimal layout, fixed
   button underlines, and clearer text contrast.
 * Improved: Admin notices now use vanilla JavaScript instead of inline jQuery.
 * Improved: Plugin config passed to scripts via inline JSON instead of `wp_localize_script`.

#### 5.0.3

 * Added: Support for WordPress Export Personal Data and Erase Personal Data tools
   for votes stored under a user account.
 * Added: Declared compatibility with WooCommerce’s newer order storage option, 
   so shops using it see fewer “incompatible plugin” notices.
 * Improved: Like button block updated for current Gutenberg / block editor expectations.
 * Improved: Safer handling of unusually large saves in Settings and the button 
   customizer (admin only).
 * Improved: Better compatibility with recent PHP versions when the plugin loads
   its code.

#### 5.0.2

 * Added: Kinsta purge cache support.
 * Fixed: Small sanitization improvement.

#### 5.0.1

 * Improved: Performance optimizations across page loading, statistics display, 
   and data processing for faster response times.
 * Improved: Enhanced security and reliability improvements for widgets and statistics
   functionality.
 * Improved: Optimized user experience when viewing likers lists and activity data.
 * Removed: Composer dependency replaced with native WordPress solution for improved
   compatibility and reduced plugin footprint.

#### 5.0.0

 * Added: Redesigned settings panel, live-preview customizer, and statistics dashboard.
 * Improved: Faster frontend and admin performance; removed jQuery from frontend
   scripts.
 * Fixed: Stability fixes across the 5.0 release.
