\<3 seems reasonable to me.
It’d be pretty easy to pull these out into a site setting, actually; out of scope for this PR but might be a nice next step.

I tried out this feature and got an error:

While replying should not be allowed, it is legitimate to like a post of a closed topic.

Sure, I think I can grab that over the weekend if it’s not resolved by then.

Wait… are you sure? As Closed != Archived. Archived prevents likes, edits, etc of a topic, but Closed, you can still Like… so wouldn’t you want this to mimic what Desktop/Mobile users are able to do?

A member reported being able to +1 like via email, but then later logged in to check but found she had liked the wrong post (she +1 liked a reply to the post she wanted to like). She says she was then unable to reverse it as usual via the web interface. Is this disabled for some reason?

That’s always been the case. You only can undo a like/flag/etc during the window defined by the “`post_undo_action_window_mins`” site setting.

Makes sense. It struck her probably only because she came to the post later and wanted to toggle it.
With liking by email, we have to be mindful to explain the risk of liking the wrong post to members, esp if it is not possible to reverse it later.

A bug I reported was fixed and I mailed “+1” just to get the response that this was not possible, because the bug topic was closed. So in meta, this is still an issue.
