    Does anyone know how to adjust the sharing settings so the Google+ posts go out to public? It seems something got changed not too long ago. All of my blog posts are going to Google+ with a setting that says that it is only being shared with myself (which defeats the purpose). I need them to go to Public. This used to work fine.

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

    In order to protect your privacy Google+ defaults the privacy settings of all posts from attached applications as private. After you connect your WordPress.com site to Google+, this can be changed through your Google+ Settings page.

    Go to the Google+ Manage Apps page. There you will see each “App” you have connected to Google+, including WordPress. On the WordPress line, click the edit link to change the privacy settings. In the popup window, you will see a dropdown to change who sees your WordPress postings; Only you, Your circles, Public, Extended Circles, or Custom. Choose your options and make sure to click the Save button.

    And by following that, you will now be sharing your WordPress posts on Google+ to whoever you want!
