What It Does

"I Recommend This" allows your visitors to effortlessly like or recommend your posts with a single click, making it easier for them to show their appreciation without leaving a comment. Enhance your site's engagement by providing a simple, user-friendly way for readers to interact with your content.

This plugin features a display counter for likes and recommendations, a widget and shortcode to showcase the most liked posts, and options to customize the appearance with either a "Thumbs Up" or "Heart" icon. It prevents multiple votes from the same user through cookies and IP address tracking, ensuring fair engagement.

Advanced options include hiding the counter if the count is zero, customizing messages for different like counts, and options to disable IP address saving to comply with GDPR. The plugin also supports enhanced cookie management and IP address anonymization for stronger GDPR compliance.

Developers will appreciate the extensive action and filter hooks available, along with built-in query block compatibility. You can easily add the voting link to any page using the provided shortcode.
