Enable upvoting and downvoting in lieu of liking questions and answers in your
Experience Cloud site. When you enable upvoting and downvoting, members see an
Upvote option under a question or answer and a
Downvote option on the question or answer’s overflow menu. The
Like option goes away. Upvoting and downvoting are disabled by default
in Experience Cloud sites created in Spring ’19 and later.

and Developer Editions
For sites created before the Winter ’18 release, it’s an easy task to enable up and down
voting.
When you change to upvotes, pre-existing likes are included in the upvote count. Click the
count to see a list of the people who have upvoted.
Note
No one is listed more than once, even if a person both liked and upvoted a question or
answer. But each like and upvote is counted. For example, if someone both liked and
upvoted a question, the count is 2, although their name is listed only once. If you
prefer not to merge your like and upvote counts, contact Salesforce support.
On influence cards, upvotes count as likes received. Your own upvotes on your own
posts or comments aren’t counted towards influence. Downvoting a post or comment doesn’t
reduce the like count, unless a user is changing their own upvote to a downvote.
Members must be logged in to a site to use the upvote and downvote feature.
Go to Experience Workspaces and click Administration | Preferences.
Under Experience Management, select Allow members to upvote and
downvote.
Click Save.
