I would likely change the whole logic.
Check if a user is logged in
-> no cookie checked, just checked against database
else
check against cookie
Does that make sense? So does the like count in the database increase when not logged in people like a post?

hello sascha,
the cookie checking, is for those users who liked a post in logged out mode. So if they want to like the same post, while they’re logged in, they can’t. (i think, this is a better logical survey)
But, i will add the ip address cheking for the next versions. 😉
Ah, ok! Understand that now. Have you had a problem logging in with 2-3 users from the same computer on the same day and trying to like the same post?
As said it did not work for me.

The users, with same computer (and same browser) on the same post, have same cookie and they can’t like that post, more than one time. And this isn’t a problem.
It is important on shared computers!
Imagine a computer pool where many people log in on one computer during the course of the day. Specialised course and topic at a university. 100 participants. 20 computers in pool. 5-10 people log into the same site and want to like the same post from the same computer during the course of a day, when they are logged into that site.
Obviously that will need to work if done from same computer.
Is there a way to achieve this?

This is a specific situation! But, I am going to add a new option on WP ULike 1.9 or WP ULike 2.0 that you can select your logging method. 😉
Cool! Thank you for your feedback.
I know this is a specific situation, but quite realistic in my described use case I think. At least I can witness that at my computer pool.
I guess it will make your plugin even better!
