Description
Posts Like Dislike provides a shortcode, but in block themes shortcodes are processed after the whole template is built. Inside a Query Loop every card ends up pointing to the same post, so all votes go to one article.
This add-on adds a real “Like / Dislike” block that reads the post ID from the Query Loop context and asks Posts Like Dislike to render the buttons for exactly that post. Votes, counters and settings stay in Posts Like Dislike: nothing is duplicated and existing votes keep working.
Features
- Native block for the Site Editor, templates and the Query Loop
- The correct post in every card
- Editor preview
- Margin, padding and justification controls
- No settings, no tracking, no external requests
This plugin is an add-on: it requires the free Posts Like Dislike plugin, which handles votes, counters and settings.

FAQ
-
Does it replace Posts Like Dislike?
-
No. It only adds a block. Votes, counters, styles and settings are still managed by Posts Like Dislike.
-
Will my existing votes be kept?
-
Yes. The block uses the same data as Posts Like Dislike, so existing votes are shown and counted as before.
-
Should I disable the automatic display in Posts Like Dislike?
-
If you place the block in your templates, you may want to disable the automatic display in the Posts Like Dislike settings to avoid showing the buttons twice.
-
Does it collect data or contact external services?
-
No. The plugin has no settings, stores nothing and makes no external requests.
