It does not appear that a User can like an Idea comment.  Even in your screenshot above, the Like is greyed out, it's not bold like Reply.  Even when permissions for Likes are set to Grant, it does not appear that users can like comments.  Is this the expected behavior?  Even Admins are unable to like an Idea comment.

Hi Michelle_Lynn! The screenshot in the article was not taken from an Ideas board but rather from someone viewing their own comment, which is one of the scenarios in which you cannot like a comment. 

Some possibilities for why you may not be able to like a comment would be:

  • It is your own comment.
  • The community or category permission defaults have Like content set to Deny.
  • Your role does not have the permission for Like content set to Grant. (Sounds like this is not the case since you stated that the Likes permission is set to Grant for the members in question.) 

Let me know if none of these are the case for you so we can look into it more. I'll also loop in SahilC in case he has additional thoughts.
