[Plugin: Social Sharing Toolkit] Fix for Google Share

Thank you very much!!!!!

Is there an easy fix for those of us who know nothing about coding?

Great fix and it works. You don’t need to know anything about coding, just copy and paste. Let me break it down into steps.
1. find this file: button.googleplus.php. Using your Cpanel, navigate to your website files(look out for the file manager tab). Your website host should have a search files feature. If they don’t, it’s time to find another host. Just copy and paste “button.googleplus.php” into the search box and voila!
2. Open the file. Most host provide a code editor.
3. find this code
$url = 'https://plusone.google.com/_/+1/confirm?hl=en&url='.urlencode($url).'&title='.urlencode($title);

it should be line 28, it’s near the bottom. Select the code and paste this code
$url = 'https://plus.google.com/share?url='.urlencode($url);

Save the file and that’s it.
You can also pray and pray and hope the plugin author will fix this in the near future.
Hope that helps.

Thank you all for the fix, great catch!

Didn’t work for me. Replaced with https://plus.google.com/share?url= and I still get a popup and instant-close.

Post link to your website as this patch does work.
