   Google+ is really taking off. Please provide Google+ buttons in the same styles as the other buttons (Twitter, Linked IN, etc.)

   Thx

   Hello Kai,

   As buggerlugs said, in the recently released update of the themes, Google+ was added to the list of available networks.

   buggerlugs, Ruderic,

   Sorry for the confusion, I don't mean the +1 button, I mean the recently launched social network Google+, see https://plus.google.com/

   I didn't see any buttons there toedter_k. If you see any areas where they offer buttons for your website let us know and we'll get it updated.

   I mean the social buttons you find under the Sociable configuration, like Twitter, Facebook, etc. See Screenshot. The only Google service you currently support is Google Talk. I would like to get an icon like the second attachment, but fitting the dark style of Awake.

   

   Of course I could create an icon for the dark Awake style myself, but it would be nice if Google+ would be provided in any style.

   Oh I see, I'll move this to feature requests and we'll probably get some more icons in the next update.

   Thanks for letting us know about this toedter_k.

    Hello brcjackson,

    Are you trying to add a Google+ button to your page? Try using our shortcode, http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php?title=Social_Media_Shortcodes#Google_.2B1.

    This topic is in feature requests for more icons to use, we'll probably see some more added in a future update.

    Elliott, He was talking about the Social Buttons (upper right on Awake). Right now, there is no Google Plus input in the configuration and also no buttons. This Google Plus button in the Social Media group would go to a Google Plus user/company account. We need it here too and I can' see any way to get it in.

    Thanks,
    Shawn Blair

    Hello DesignSU,

    For the sociables you can upload any icon you need, http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php?title=Sociable, the one that toedter_k shown in the posts above looks pretty nice and you can set whatever URL you need also.

    If you want the actual google+ button to display then see the instructions in my previous post. You can follow this tutorial to add it in the header next to your other sociables, http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php/Adding_stuff_to_the_header.

    +1 on the Sociable update. I use custom icons and custom urls under the "Twitter" sociable. I suggest just add a custom choice under the sociable tab and that should do it! I am sure you've already thought of that. Keep up the good work!

    +1 on this. Google Plus will be here to stay, even if their official Icon has changed a little since July. But I guess that’s here to stay, too. ;-)
