Hey there,

I could not find the option. Probably I just missed it. Could you please point me to the right direction? If I not have missed it and there is no option, could you please point me to the necessary file to override it having no mouse over which should solve it by having like only left then.
Hey Sabih,

There are no settings to turn off reactions altogether because essentially, likes is also a reaction. If you want, you could change the behavior of reactions by using css,

[gist]
#es.is-desktop .es-reactions-pop:hover, #es.is-desktop .es-reaction-option__link:hover ~ .es-reactions-pop {
visibility: hidden !important;
}
[/gist]

By the way, just wondering why wouldn't you like the behavior of reactions eh?

I like it But for one of my two domains I think it just does not fit, because I try to build a site where is stream replaces the forum in some way. Though I have to admit I am working for more than a year on it already but never give up. Nevertheless moving a topic to top of the stream because someone gives a "sad" or "angry" would not fit.

Oh, you could actually disable that now if you do not want stream items to be rendered by last modified time or latest first, http://take.ms/AOHrV

Yes, that is a cool feature. But I want comments to get it to top but not likes doing so.

I see, hm maybe it would make sense as a settings? You should post this in the feature requests area! Get the community going

If you can tell me which file is responsible for getting the stream item to top after liking, I will make a feature request and could give an exact solution how to make it without an option until the option is there. In a former version it was the like.php file but I can not find it there in ES 2.1. So it has probably moved to another file.

You should edit the file /administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/likes/likes.php and comment out the codes below at line 791,

[gist]
$stream->updateModified($streamId, $this->my->id, SOCIAL_STREAM_LAST_ACTION_LIKE);
[/gist]
