Delete Google Plus
Delete Google Plus Web Integrations From Your Sites
Hi Folks
Just a quick blog to inform you of Google's intention to close down their Google Plus.
Below is the email I received today, so if any member hasn't received it, please read and take action asap.

Google has announced that Google+ for consumers will be sunset. As part of the sunset, all Google+ web integrations will stop serving on March 7, 2019. This has the potential to affect website layouts and/or functionality if no action is taken by website owners.
Developers are strongly advised to remove related code from their websites as soon as possible.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Remove all integration with Google+
Find and remove all references to Google+ integrations. Some examples include buttons such as (+1 buttons, Follow buttons, Hangouts buttons, and share buttons), badges, and interactive posts.

Leo, would be nice to let us know what exactly to do, other than remove the G+ icons from our social plugins.

That's all you need to do - and if you have any links to your G+ account on posts or pages delete or disable them, as for your G+ account Google will terminate that or you can do it yourself before hand
Thanks. Well, I posted on G+ with a link TO the posts. And the
G+ URL we added to the All in one SEO put the link in all posts...looking at the page source code.
what about those?
Hi Leo
I only did it yesterday after I got the email.
All done now though.
Thank you for replying to John, I'm sure he appreciated your input.
Have a good one.
Robert
You will probably get one of these emails if you use Google Plus Bob.
I have already delete all mention of Google Plus in my Wordpress.
Enjoy your day.

Happy to share Michael.
How did you get on with that info I sent you.
Did you get your Webmasters sorted out ok?
Robert
Hi Robert, there can not be a comparison between your knowledge of the Internet and my lack of, what may be simple to you I tend to complicate. I read your your profile. If you have a problem with your car I guarantee you I will fix it better and faster than anyone else. I even build and fix computers. I sometimes feel like a fish trying to climb a tree, pretty silly right. When it comes to following the lessons being taught here I am that fish. If by chance that tree falls in the water I will just swim over it. I totally respect you Robert and I really hope I am not being rude.
No probs Michael, feel free to say what's on your mind.
Better out than in as my old granny used to say.
One step at a time and you will get there.
It might take you longer than most but persevere.
Have a great Thursday.
Robert
Hi Robert, I do say what I feel with no intention of being arrogant or rude. Yes it is taking me longer than most people. I congratulate those many, that get to the point where they feel confidant in the achievements they have made in less time than me.
