Metronet

Another exciting day for us here at Metronet! Today we released our first plugin on the official WordPress.org plugin repository.

Just a few days after Google released their +1 code for websites, we’ve developed a ‘one click’ solution for any WordPress installation.

Plus One, a Google +1 button for WordPress, can be found and downloaded here. For more information about Google’s +1 button check out my previous post, Google’s +1 Button: Relevant Search Recommendations.

.

Installation and Configuration is Simple

1. Download and activate the Plus One plugin

2. Visit the Plus One options page (Dashboard -> Settings -> Plus One)

Settings Overview

Button Preview – Preview how your +1 button will look

Manual Code Generator – Generate +1 Button Code if you would like to manually add it yourself. (Similar to here.)

Here are the current options for Plus One (version 1.0)

Posts - Whether or not to display the +1 button on posts

Pages – Whether or not to display the +1 button on pages

Location – Whether or not to display the +1 button above, below (or both) the content

Size – Choose the +1 button size. Small, medium, standord or tall

Language - Choose what language to use for the +1 button

Include Count – Whether or not to display the +1 button count

Parse – Render the +1 button «On load» or explicitly via Javascript

JS Callback – The name of a Javascript function to be executed upon clicking +1 button

Now go +1 something!

We wanted to make a simple solution for adding the +1 button to your WordPress site. We hope you find Plus One helpful and would love any feedback (bug reports/criticism) you have. Let us know what you think by leaving a comment below or sending a message to wp@metronet.no. We are looking forward to adding more features, like Google Analytics events, in the near future.
