Frequently asked questions.
How do I display the button in my template?
Use the shortcode [love_me] in your content, or echo do_shortcode( '[love_me]' ); in a template. The shortcode accepts an optional id attribute: [love_me id="42"] .
Which hooks are available?
love_me_add_cpt (filter): post types displaying the button. love_me_auto_display (filter): whether the button is auto-inserted in the current content. love_me_enqueue_assets (filter): force or prevent loading the plugin assets. love_me_button_html (filter): override the button markup. love_me_client_ip (filter): visitor IP, useful behind a reverse proxy. love_me_client_id (filter): visitor identifier, e.g. to use a cookie instead of the IP. love_me_max_client_ids (filter): cap the number of identifiers stored per post (default: unlimited). love_me_toggled (action): fired after a like is added or removed.
Which data is stored about visitors?
A salted hash of the visitor IP is stored per liked post, so the same visitor cannot like twice. The raw IP is not stored. Raw IPs collected by version 1.x are hashed the next time the post receives a like. A suggested text is added to Settings → Privacy.
