 * Shortcodes are typically evaluated in your post content. If you would like to
   evaluate shortcode-like syntax on demand try [do_shortcode()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode)

 * Hi Niall Kennedy…thanks for your quick response…..I try again with some of you
   advice but i cant put the like button.
 * What i want to do is that a like button appears in all of my featured loop in
   my homepage, but every like button needs to be from the same post….so I try to
   put the like button in my loop.php with a loot of combinations of code but i 
   really cant….
 * Some advice to this???
 * Thanks for your time sir.
