acts_as_votable button not updating

issue as above, unable to get "like" button working, posted changes as follows. Thank you in advance. I have modified the routes, models views, controllers as follows.

Acts as Votable Migration

class ActsAsVotableMigration < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :votes do |t|

  t.references :votable, :polymorphic => true
  t.references :voter, :polymorphic => true

  t.boolean :vote_flag
  t.string :vote_scope

  t.timestamps
 end

add_index :votes, [:votable_id, :votable_type]
add_index :votes, [:voter_id, :voter_type]
add_index :votes, [:voter_id, :voter_type, :vote_scope]
add_index :votes, [:votable_id, :votable_type, :vote_scope]
end

def self.down
drop_table :votes
 end
end

Routes=

resources :users do
  resources :posts do
  member do
  post :like
  end
resources :comments
end
end

Models

(User)has_many :posts
(Post)has_many :comments
(Post)belongs_to :user
(Comment)belongs_to :post

Controller(posts)

def like
@post= Post.find(params[:id])
@post.liked_by current_user
redirect_to :back
flash[:notice]="Liked!" 
end

Index(posts)

  <%= link_to  like_user_post_path(post.user,post), :method => :post ,:class =>""  do%>
        <span class="btn btn-primary editlike">
        <%=post.likes.size %>
<i class="icon-heart ">
