Facebook makes it possible to like individual user posts as well as public events and interest pages. Unfortunately, Facebook does not allow you to hide likes on individual user posts.

QuestionWhen I read the names who have liked something and I see "And one more" at the bottom, is the one more person being kept hidden for some reason?Community AnswerNo, Facebook just has a space limitation that they handle by adding "and X more." If you click on the names listed, you will be able to see that extra person.
