Please help. I wrongly clicked “like” at my own post. I want to remove it and already tried the solution suggested at the support pages and this forum. I choose Read Post I like. Then my browser go to http://en.wordpress.com/likes/ but soon redirected to http://wordpress.com/#likes and I can’t do anything. The browser showing Freshly Pressed tab highlighted and animated wordpress icon on the center indicating loading but it’s forever. How to solve? I can’t see anything like people said about the expand post, reblog post and remove post button. What’s wrong? I tried two days already using google chrome browser and ie9.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I have exactly the same problem. I can’t see anything else than a spinning WordPress logo. I use Safari on a Mac, but have tried several other browsers, with the same result.

Same problem for me. Very frustrating. Does anyone know another way to remove a post I like?

I am also frustrated with this and am awaiting an update. Like others, I accidentally ‘liked’ my own post while installing and trying to figure out this feature.

Not to worry folks. This is not a catastrophic issue. It’s an annoyance and nothing more that that. Staff are looking into it and will fix it when they determine the cause and have a solution. Please don’t let this little issue deter you from blogging on. Hope you all have a great blogging day! :)

Me, too. I didn’t do it accidentally (even worse) I was trying to see what it looked like and figured I could just delete it. Can hardly wait until this is solved. Thanks.

@atimetocastawaystones
I cannot tell from the cryptic remark you posted if you have the same issue or not. Please clarify.

I am also having the same problem, only I ‘Liked’ someone else’s post on accident.

Howdy all, thank you for reporting this. It is not possible to “unlike” a post at the moment, however, our team we’ll be looking into adding that functionality. We don’t have an ETA for that at the moment, but do appreciate your input so far. Thanks in advance for your patience!

You should now be able to unlike a post by clicking on the “Liked” button inside the content area of the post.
