solved Can't like

I am on a forum discussion. I click like. I get an error,

" User not logged in or not allowed to like/dislike "

Okay. I see my name in the top nav so I am logged in. I see the like button so the module is active. I go to the quota config for the Likes module and check that my quota (admin) has all privileges checked, including self-liking.

I go to a random image page and the Like button is greyed out (as are the ratings stars). I checked and the quota that the member is in has all the Liking privileges checked as well.

What am I missing?

-- edited to add --

On the original forum post where I noticed that I was unable to like and got the error message, I was able to post a comment. So the system knows I am logged in.

Have you liked the item before? The icons are greyed out if so.

I have not. And if I had liked I would have expected the counter to be > 0.

In reaction to a question I asked Michael in another thread, decided to do a repair/optimize on the database. This appears to have solved the problem.

In any event, I went to the photo I could not rate or like yesterday and that functionality is now available to me.

I am now going to make a complete integrity check a regular part of my site maintenance schedule.

Also -- I was also having some other issues related to power-user functionality that I think I corrected, but I can't think how that was related to this issue.

Good idea.
Let us know if you see any other issues.
