The Google+ plugin
not working, does not connect properly to G+ (4 posts)

    This G+ is not connecting properly to google ... when I click on the button, a popup opens, tries to connect or something but it does not make it obviously and no +'s are seen either on my page or in the google account.

    There must be smth wrong with the script which connects to Google, as it gets stuck on that white popup and never moves on from there!

    Solution?

    Thanks

    Apparently a lot of people are having troubles. I get the popup, but then it promptly disappears, the settings page reloads, and I'm stuck with "Authenticate" button appearing.

    Just too bad you have to pay for the support... Might have to find a different plugin.

    I spent hours troubleshooting an issue similar to this. Perhaps it's the same problem you were having. I hope this helps...

    The token that Google was returning did not contain an attribute that The Google+ Plugin was expecting. I solved this by changing line 126 of lib/external/google/auth/apiOAuth2.php from...

    if (! isset($accessToken['access_token']) || ! isset($accessToken['expires_in']) || ! isset($accessToken['refresh_token'])) {

    ... to ...

    if (! isset($accessToken['access_token']) || ! isset($accessToken['expires_in']) ) {

    Once I did that, everything started working as intended. I'm not sure if this is a good long term fix or if it will cause other problems, but it's working for me for now.

    Yes! That worked perfectly! Once I made that change the Authenticate button changed to Test.

    Thanks for the fix! I didn't even know where to begin on that.
