FAQ
- How can I add just the button to another area of my theme?
-
In the Theme Editor, you will place this line of code where you want the button to appear in your theme:
<?php if( function_exists('LIKEBOT_BUTTON') ) { LIKEBOT_BUTTON(); } ?>
Keep in mind that manually inserted buttons wont be aligned left or right, though it will use the background-color and button-design option. Generally you should go with automagically-positioning if you’re not very familiar with working with php in theme-files.
- Can i change the appearance of the LikeBot-button?
-
It’s possible to change the customization plugin administration. Logon as an Administrative account and click “LikeBot Plugin” in the Plugins-menu.
- Can i change the alignment of the button?

Sure, you can change the alignment under customization in the plugin administration.

<!--nolikebot-->
