myphotosofstuffI have checked the 'show likes for this post' button on all my blogs so far, but the like button does not appear on my blog page. Any ideas why this is?
The blog I need help with is myphotosofstuff.wordpress.com.

I can see the like buttons on your blog. Unless you use the P2 theme, which is a Twitter-like theme, the front pages of our blogs showcase content, and comments are collapsed on that page and you cannot change this. The way the comments function is coded into the core of WordPress. By clicking the post title or the comments link the posts on the front page open on their own page where all comments display.
In a new blog one does not have many posts or comments. In an established blog if the comments did not collapse on the front page it would become a mile long in no time flat and page loading time is a page ranking factor. We have only seconds before visitors refuse to wait and click out.
Please click the title of any post on your blog and the post will open on it's own page. There you will see the "like" button below the post and above the comment box.

Make sure to select “Front Page, Archive Pages, and Search Results” for “Show buttons on” setting. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#troubleshooting -
Thanks very much for your reply, I understand what's going on now and why.
