I'm sorry but it's not possible without days of hard work and lots of changes in database and script structure. This requires large changes and it's not in our to-do list. You can ask for paid custom addon creation or wpForo customization via salesgvectors.com email address.

@robert Is it possible to add fake reactions? I've tried using a database, but the count is per user. My forum gets a lot of traffic, but most users don't like to log in; they just come to see the information. I have posts with 3,000 views and only 20 reactions, or posts with 1,000 views and zero reactions.

Hi @alquimist08,

I'm sorry but the post reaction feature only available for loggedin users.

It is possible to enable the "Like" button for guests?

I want to enable the "like" option for visitors, but it is disabled in the "Access" section.
Is there a way to enable it?

Thanks.
