CheersnGears Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 Ian was instrumental in figuring out this next part. Pointing your website content to your IPS user profile. In Manage Skin sets & Templates, find the template userHoverCard under Global Templates Find <a hovercard-ref="member" hovercard-id="{$member['member_id'] Modify to <a rel="author" hovercard-ref="member" hovercard-id="{$member['member_id']} Save the template While this will add the "rel=author" to every user profile rendered on the page, Google only looks at the first author tag and ignores all subsequent ones. Next Up - Publisher Tags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheersnGears Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 Verifying Authorship with Google After all of those steps, we want to make sure that it worked of course! Go to the Structured Data Testing Tool Select a Content or Blog article written by someone who has their GooglePlus profile information set in their profile on your website. Paste the article into the structured data testing tool. Your results should look like this: If you added the Publisher tag, scroll down a bit to see those results also: If both of your results are green, you are all set to go and should start seeing better results from Google searches. Note: If you have completed all of these steps, you shouldn't need to complete the Email verification. It's as an either/or step. Coding it the way we have in this guide makes the email verification un-needed. I hope this helps you. I am not a coder; if anyone has any suggestions on how to go about this in a better way, I am excited to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ichirō Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 But how did users enter their GooglePlus id? Did it pass the verification test? That was the drawback , since i do almost all of the articles I just used this a a crude method to get by. Note: Yes it passes the verification test for articles at least ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to back that out because you could eventually have things attributed to you that you didn't write... and Google might think that was bad.

~sullengirl~ Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I will need this really soon, was just about to ask how to do it... Not sure I will be able to do it myself, but still, it is good to know it can be done. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheersnGears Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 In reality, this whole thing should be a hook, but since I'm not a coder, I can't write one for you guys or I would. This is pretty essential for anyone running a site that uses Content and Blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~sullengirl~ Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 You can maybe find somebody to write a hook, I would pay for it definitely :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ichirō Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Coding Jungle has released a hook for doing exactly this. It is really easy to setup and takes the fuss out of setting this up to work properly.

A disappointing move to be honest. Had wanted to use this guide to implement it on my site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hameedacpa Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 the feature of Google authorship still exist and the following link will show how it is working now after the change no need to be disappointed. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1408986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Actually it is a matter of simplifying and clean up the design , the feature still exist But the reason most people implemented it, was that the picture clearly stood out from the rest of the search results and you could easily recognize a familiar author. Having just an additional name in grey letters doesn’t do very much. I already removed it from my site. No sense in advertising Google+ without getting anything in return.
