 * Hello [@fobstar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fobstar/),
 * The meta key name is “_recommended” and is saved in the “wp_postmeta” table.

 * Cool. Thank u for your reply.
 * Is there a way to display the output only?
 * We have added the code to our archive template but want to prevent users clicking
   on multiple ‘likes’. When we do this currently it crashes our database. Cheers

 * Hello [@fobstar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fobstar/),
 * It’s possible to just display the count but you will need to add custom code 
   which I regret to say is beyond the scope of my free support.
