<p><strong>Post Engagement – Like Dislike, Share, Views Counter, Star Rating, Favorites & Copy Posts</strong> is a lightweight, user-friendly plugin that lets users engage with posts, comments, and WooCommerce products using <strong>Like</strong>, <strong>Dislike</strong>, <strong>Star Rating</strong>, <strong>Post View Tracking</strong>, and <strong>Favorites</strong> (wishlist-like system) and <strong>Copy posts</strong>.</p>
<p>Built with performance in mind, the plugin uses AJAX for seamless interaction and offers customization for labels, icon colors, display positions, view counters, tooltips, and more.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>⚠️ <strong>Note:</strong> The product star rating system in this plugin is a <strong>custom-built functionality using its own database table</strong>, not the default WooCommerce or WordPress rating/comments meta. This ensures better performance and independent control over ratings.</p>
