Also you can use this function and shortcode for the post likes:

*   Shortcode:
`[wp_ulike]`

= How To Change Format Number Function? =
* You can adding your changes on `wp_ulike_format_number` function with a simple filter. for example, if you want to remove the "+" character you can use this filter:
<code> 
<?php
add_filter('wp_ulike_format_number','wp_ulike_new_format_number',10,3);
function wp_ulike_new_format_number($value, $num, $plus){
	if ($num >= 1000 && get_option('wp_ulike_format_number') == '1'):
	$value = round($num/1000, 2) . 'K';
	else:
	$value = $num;
	endif;
	return $value;
}
?>
</code>

<code>

endif;
?>
</code>

	'post_type' =>'post',
	'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
	'meta_key' => '_liked',
	'paged' => (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1
	));
