Hello everyone! After trying to figure out a way to limit the trust levels , and seeing it is something complex in our case, we were thinking about the option of limiting or avoiding likes in a specific category. Since the likes are counted in trust levels, this could be useful so that in a specific…

Just add this in the CSS of a theme component, replacing SLUG with the slug of the category. body.category-SLUG button.toggle-like { display: none; }

AFAIK you can’t — but I don’t have any deeper knowlegde here. But… Is it possible to take easy road? Do your users really need all the tools that higher TL automatically gives? Then you could limit users to TL2 and give TL3 manually to those few who has will, need and knowledge use those tools. Th…

It would be pretty simple to use css to hide the like button in a category.

Thank you so much Richard, that worked perfectly well and solved all my problems :smiley:

But that is stopping liking for good at some categories, not limiting. Sure, if you get what you need then it is perfect solution indeed.

Yes, it restricts likes from that category altogether. It’s a tiny bit of CSS. Limiting the number of likes in specific categories would require a plugin that would not be easy to write.

It is important to notice that the CSS is only hiding the button in the UI. The button can be displayed again using the browser devtools or the API endpoint can still be called manually if the user knows what is doing as has incentive to do so. That said hiding the button should be enough to stop …

Oui, c’est l’idée. Comme il s’agirait d’un groupe d’utilisateurs que nous connaissons mieux (ce sont des étudiants), il serait facile de « repérer » quiconque essaierait de nous tromper.
