How to Download Advanced Likers

Advanced Likers is available for download here at Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file, and activate. Remember to keep wpDiscuz already active on the site, as the addon depends on it to work and add its options to the settings panel.

Aimed at sites that treat the comments area as a community space, Advanced Likers elevates the standard like system to a complete social interaction layer. By exposing who voted and sorting discussions by readers’ approval, it turns feedback into a public signal of relevance, useful for editorial portals, personal blogs, and communities that thrive on qualified debate in the comments.
