FYI, for anyone wanting to use this to add author tags via Google+ here's how to do it:


In template memberaction_dropdown
after
HTML Code:


add
HTML Code:


(the second if condition is not needed if you do not have suite)


In template memberinfo_block_social
add rel="me" to the google button link to make it:
HTML Code:
<a target ="blank" href=span style="color:#0000FF""{vb:raw social.google}"/span rel=span style="color:#0000FF""me"/span>

Instruct your members to add their member profile to "Other Profiles" on their Google+ account.
