To make a love/fav detector, you need to position a shape offscreen, overtop of the like or favorite button. Since you can't detect clicks offscreen, you have to just wait until the player has had there mouse over top of the button for a few frames, then do whatever you need to do if they like/fav. The overall code should look like this:

the liked position should be offscreen on the costume editor, where the like button would be if the costume stage outline was the stage on the project page.

Okay, I will try that. Thanks!

Why don't you just add a like button and a favorite button in your game. Do the buttons in scratch matter at all?

and just copy this for the favorite button

The “mouse down” block only works inside the project window.

you cant detect when someone actually likes/favourites, but the methods above are the closest you can get

And is that why you posted this at 5:00 a.m. My time?

Also I meant why don't you just make your own button in your game instead of using the scratch buttons.

this only works in the window so make the buttons in game

Or maybe play my game and you'll figure out what I mean.

This prevents Like then Unliking.
