  I would like to add a widget on my blog for google+ but I can’t find one. Is there one?

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

  Does this mean there isn’t one? That there is never going to be one?

  There isn’t one. Who knows what the future holds?

  You can always make one in a Text widget.

  You can add a Google+ icon with your name by it, but you can’t add the fancy Javascript badges. To add the simple icon badge, go to the Google+ badges page. On the left, under “Google+ user,” it should say “Features” and give you a choice between “icon” and “small badge.” Choose “icon.” You can add a custom name and choose the size of the icon. Then just take the code it generates on the right-hand side and paste it where you want it to appear on your site.

  I ended up doing that, I took an icon off google+ then I put a link to me on it. Thanks for your help.
