# Social Media Tabs – https request to googleapi malformed

 * Hi there,
    In my wordpress blog I used Social Media Tabs (SMT) with Google +.
   When I inspected the network traffic with Mozilla’s Firebug, my webserver produced
   a malformed GET request directed to googleapi.
 * The request was:
    [https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people//activities/public?callback=jquery](https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people//activities/public?callback=jquery)…
   and so on. The GET request was malformed because it showed two consecutive slashes
   in the middle (…people//activities…). Consequently, the request failed and the
   response code was 404.
 * For me it appears to be a bug in SMT. Anyway, SMT seems to be the source of this
   request.
 * Any comments?

 * Hi,
 * This would occur if you have not included your google + ID

 * Hi,
 * I double checked that. I _have_ included my Google + ID in the SMT Widget(!).
 * Do I have to fill in anoter field than the API Key under the Google + settings?
 * Thanks very much for the hint. Any other idea?
