great mod. tnx

[hcfwesker]

Thank you.  Preview Images are on the MOD page, I'll have to add them here as well. 

If there are other popular Social Network sites I may have missed or not aware of, I will take suggestions and possibly add into this modification. 

[fungku]

Awesome!

Would be perfect if you added G+

[hcfwesker]

Awesome!

Would be perfect if you added G+

Thank you.  And, this was originally made for my site and my members, and only went on which they preferred and suggested.  But like I said, I'm open for suggestions of other social network sites to be added to this Modification as long as they are popular and widely used.  I just can't add everything that everyone suggests

I'll look into adding Google+ into the next version.  I don't use it myself, so if someone can provide an example of how a link to someone's profile works I can see how the link needs to be implemented into this

[Matthew K.]

It's https://plus.google.com/{uid}/posts

[hcfwesker]

Thanx, bud.  So  {uid}  would need to be replaced with the members info they put as their username on Google+

like this? https://plus.google.com/hcfwesker/posts

[Matthew K.]

Instead of a name, however, it's the users id. Example: https://plus.google.com/114522878621277726258/posts

[hcfwesker]

Ah, I gotcha.  Strange they chose to do it that way

but, it can be done.  So only numbers need to be allowed in the input label for members, no letters or other characters/symbols.

[Matthew K.]

That's how Facebook does it, still. Although if you have a username, it also works that way.

Google is implementing it into all their sites, including search results. I think eventually everyone will have a G+ profile whether they use it or not, but I'm sure a lot will.

Profile examples.

cheers

edit: the hxxp is supposed to be https like the poster above did in his link

[hcfwesker]

I'll work on implementing this and updating the package in the next few days.   Just gotta find/make a decent, small, icon for Google+ and make other preparations when I have time.

When you update this, you should use the upgrade element in package-info.xml so people who are using this mod already don't have to uninstall and then re-install

I like this idea 

[hcfwesker]

Version 1.0.1

Added Google+ Integration
Cleaned up a lot of file edits for cleaner install and uninstalls

It is advised to uninstall, then install the latest version.   Upgrade options will be implemented in later versions.

Big thanx to Labradoodle-360 & Joker™  for helping steer me in the right direction.

For SMF4Mobile users , I've added integration edits on the support site for these to be included.

Preview:

This will be integrated with future updates, thanx to all your help in this.  I had to clean up some of the old coding so this would be implemented better in future releases, as well as cleaner installs/uninstalls after upgrade versions are added.
