## SD Google Authorship - plugin for Joomla

![SD-GoogleAuthorship-Logo](https://www.duben.org/images/stories/software/joomla-extensions/sd-googleauthorship/SD-GoogleAuthorship-Logo.png)Finally there is an easy way how to implement Google Authorship in Joomla sites. I created plugin **SD Google Authorship**, for easy use and quick setup on Joomla site. Its simply working for multiple authors as well.

Plugin is **compatible** with **Joomla 1.5**, **Joomla 2.5** and **Joomla 3.x.** Since plugin version 3.2 it's properly **supports K2 extension**

There are only few steps you have need do to get authorship marking for Goole ready on your Joomla site.

1. [Download SD Google Authorship](https://www.duben.org/download/joomla-extensions/) plugin and install it
2. Allow "System - SD Google Authorship" plugin in Joomla Plug-in management
3. Create contact for each author and associate it with user and set Website URL as your Google Plus profile[![joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-1](https://www.duben.org/thumbs/images/stories/software/joomla-extensions/sd-googleauthorship/joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-1.thcr.400x139.jpg)](https://www.duben.org/images/stories/software/joomla-extensions/sd-googleauthorship/joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-1.jpg "joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-1")

    [![joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-3](https://www.duben.org/thumbs/images/stories/software/joomla-extensions/sd-googleauthorship/joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-3.thcr.400x213.jpg)](https://www.duben.org/images/stories/software/joomla-extensions/sd-googleauthorship/joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-3.jpg "joomla-sdgoogleauthorship-setup-3")
 
In case you are setuping authorship on different domain, than is your email domain, you should take a look into your G+ profile and verify your page. [ ](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1408986?expand=option2)<https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1408986?expand=option2>, see Option 2

Thats all. If you want be sure, that all is working properly, get some URL with article and put it to Google [rich snippet testing tool](http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets).

If you like this extension, you can send me some donation as thanks for my work.

Please don't forget rate this plugin on JED <http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-display/content-infos/authors/23742>

**Because of EU MOSS VAT Changes, you shall use this plugin free for commercial purposes as well.** Unfortunatelly because of this I will not create any future versions and support in comments will be very limited.

\- Fixed notice message  
\- Save and Close buttons working now from plugin management details
