jQuery Plugin To Display Google Plus Feeds On Your Website

A jQuery social feed plugin which makes use of plusfeed.frosas.net to get and display Google+ feeds from any Google+ page or user profile on your website.

 Official statement from Google: "On March 7, 2019, all Google+ APIs and Google+ Sign-in will be shut down completely. This will be a progressive shutdown beginning in late January, with calls to these APIs starting to intermittently fail as early as January 28, 2019."

How to use it:

1. Include jQuery javascript library and jquery.kyco.googleplusfeed.min.js script at the bottom of the page.

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.kyco.googleplusfeed2.min.js"></script>

2. Include the required stylesheet file in the head section of the page.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/jquery.kyco.googleplusfeed2.css">

3. Create an DIV container for the google plus widget.

<div class="gplus"></div>

4. Call the plugin on the DIV element and insert the user/page ID in the javascript.

$(function() {
  $('.gplus').kycoGooglePlusFeed2('111260779007626697866');
});

5. Customize the plugin with the following options.

$(function() {
$('.gplus').kycoGooglePlusFeed2({

  // google plus ID
  id: '116899029375914044550', 

  // Feed posts to show on load
  feedPosts: 2, 

  // Number of feed posts to show on "Show more" button click
  postsIncrement: 1, 

  // Max number of posts to pull before "Show more" will go to Google+, 
  // cannot excced 20 because of Google API in use
  maxPosts: 5,

  // Image size of the profile image, max size is 250
  profileImageSize: 150, 

  // Fade-in animation duration
  fadeSpeed: 0,           

  // Load images, videos, links and other attachments into feed?

  // Sort order of the orderBy parameter.
  sort: 'asc',
