  I tried to use the WordPress Support information (at http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-plus-embeds/) to embed a Google+ post into my webpage. Unfortunately, none of it works for me.

  For instance, I tried these steps:
  Find a Google+ post you want to embed. Look for the date/time display in that post.
  Right-click on that date/time, and select Copy Link.
  Next, in your blog’s post editor, paste the URL on a line by itself (no HTML necessary).
  That’s it! The Google+ post will look something like this: [displays the Google+ Post]
  –This doesn’t work. All it gives me is the URL that I pasted.

  I also tried to use the “Embedding with a Shortcode” method, but it also did nothing. It just displays exactly what I typed in.

  Can someone please set me on the right path?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
