The +1 counter
allows you to quickly scan your post list to see which posts are most popular
on your blog.
How it works
Once readers click
the +1 button on a blog post, a share box pops up so that they have the option
to post a snippet of your post to their circles on Google+. Only readers with
Google+ profiles will be able to +1 your posts, but everyone will see the
option. If a reader doesn’t have Google+ on their account and they click the +1
button, they’ll be prompted to sign up for Google+.
Each time a reader
clicks the +1 button underneath a post, it’s reflected in the counter, and the
reader’s Google+ profile photo and common name appear on your dashboard. You,
as the blog author, can see who's +1'ed your posts by going to your Posts tab,
scrolling down the list, and clicking on the +1 value to see the names and
photos of readers who have recommended your content.
How to enable the +1 counter
The +1 counter is
automatically enabled on all blogs, and the +1 button for posts is available on
all Dynamic Views posts by default. To enable the +1 button on another
template:
- Click the Layout tab.
2. Click Edit in the Blog Posts widget.
3.Check Show Share
Buttons. Share buttons are only available for public blogs.
