Let Users Remove Their Reactions
Allowing users to remove their reactions adds a layer of flexibility and control, enhancing user engagement by providing them the option to retract a reaction if they change their mind.
Steps to Enable Reaction Removal

- Navigate to Reactions > General Settings in your WordPress dashboard. This central configuration area allows you to manage settings related to user interactions.
- Locate User Interaction Options:
- Click on the User tab to access settings that affect how users can interact with reactions on your site.
- Enable Reaction Removal:
- Find the checkbox labeled Can users remove their reactions and select it. This allows users to withdraw a reaction they have previously given.
- Once this option is enabled, users can remove their reactions by simply clicking on the same reaction button a second time.
- Save Changes:
- Don’t forget to click the Save Changes button to ensure that your new settings are applied.
Benefits of Allowing Reaction Removal
- User Autonomy: Giving users the ability to remove their reactions respects their autonomy and can lead to higher trust and satisfaction.
- Dynamic Interaction: Users’ opinions and feelings can change, and allowing them to remove reactions keeps the interaction dynamic and genuine.
- Cleaner Data: By letting users remove unintended or reconsidered reactions, the feedback data you collect will be more accurate and reflective of true user sentiments.
By implementing this feature, you empower users to freely express their changing viewpoints, making the interactive elements of your site more user-friendly and adaptive to their needs.
