No love on Tapatalk

As a frequent user of the Tapatalk app to visit our beloved BMGf, it has been bothering me lately that I have lost the ability to like posts while using said app.

I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem, and how this can be fixed

Edit: Just to be sure, I checked for updates on the Google Play Store, but Tapatalk is completely up to date. So the problem isn't caused by me using an outdated version of the app.

Can I check when that vanished? There's three possible causes, which would depend on just how long ago it happened.
1) It could have worked with the extension we used to use for the likes function, but not work with the current extension.
2) We may have missed a recent Tapatalk update.
3) It could work with the extension we currently use for the likes function, but not work with the current settings (with the likes set above your signature)....

...actually, that 3rd one sounds very possible. I know one of those mobile apps for forum browsing automatically cuts out the signature block to save on space and bandwidth, could it be that it's cutting this out because the code for the likes is technically being inserted into that space? The issue would have had to have cropped up in just the last week if that is the issue though.
 
It worked perfectly with the old like system of like half a year ago. Then it stopped working when a new addon (with the likes/post thanks thing) was taken into use. Then it suddenly worked again a few weeks ago, only to vanish again soon after reappearing.

Tapatalk doesn't show signatures, but the old way to like posts on the app was to tap on a post, which would give a small pop-up menu which included a like button, a quote button and a multi-quote button, among others. However, the like button is now gone (all the other buttons are still there tho).
 
Hello. I'm also had this problem. The app I'm using right now is clearly getting a problem. Like button are missing and even if they show it I still can put a thumb ups for them.
Please solve this problem and sorry if I'm bump without permission.
 
Yeah and it's quite annoying to switch to a browser just to like something
 
Okay, from the sounds of it, it's simply an out-of-date Tapatalk extension. I'll look into it when I get back from my day job later. I'm guessing there may be something of a rolling compatibility issue, by which I mean Tapatalk *is* compatible with the extension we're using for this, but that compatibility breaks when the extension is updated and it may take a little while each time for Tapatalk to be updated for it.
 
Alright, I'll be patiently looking forward to it!
 
Okay, so we're already on the latest version of Tapatalk. I have a feeling the latest version of the likes extension may have broken tapatalk compatibility with it. We'll know for certain when the next version of Tapatalk comes out, and if that fixes the problem.
 
Thanks @Archaic; Now I will update to see whether our like buttons are back or now
