What happens to my forum? right from day one, I installed it, it has never show like button on any first post, if I create a new thread...I won't see like button, but, if I reply to the thread, the like button will show, I have no addon installed,

You don't see it on your own posts so it is normal to only see it on others'.

NO, I am not talking about my own post... I am talking about other users, and also I created another new account with registered permission to check the error they were talking about

It is not a known bug. Check with your theme author.

Aside from obvious things like being unable to like your own posts, being unable to like posts that aren't visible and being unable to like posts if you're not logged in, the permission checks are identical for the first post of a thread as they are for subsequent posts in a thread.

In other words, if you can like a reply to a thread, and none of the other special cases are relevant, then there's no reason you shouldn't be able to like the first post of a thread too.

I would therefore strongly suspect an add-on or style issue to be involved here.
