How to Install a Friend Connect Widget on Your Wordpress Blog

How to Install a Friend Connect Widget on Your Wordpress Blog
1. Go to http://www.google.com/friendconnect/ and log in with your Google account. It can be the same one as your Gmail account. Register your site with this service: enter your web site's URL, the title, and the language it's written in.
2. Go to the 'Overview' section on the left column and edit the information there. Then click on the option right below it, where it says 'Gadgets'. Those are all the different Friend Connect boxes you can have on your sidebar. We are going to install the one for your Friends and community of readers.

3. The 'Members' gadget is the first one on the list. Click where it says 'Get this gadget' to access the HTML code you will paste on your site. Different boxes will show up--that's where you can choose the number of rows, columns, and the colors you want to include on the box. Once you are done, click on the third option, 'Generate code', and copy it (Ctrl C or cmd C)
4. Log in to your Wordpress blog and go to the 'Widgets' section on your administrator panel. Drag one of the 'Text' widgets to your sidebar. Open the widget and paste the code you copied from the Google Friend Connect Members gadget. Save and close the widget, and choose the location you want it to appear on your sidebar.
5. Go to your 'Settings' menu inside the Wordpress admin dashboard. There should be an option for 'Friend Connect.' Click on it. You'll need to enter your site ID in order for it to work. You can retrieve your site ID from your Google FriendConnect page. The ID is the last 20 digits on your URL. You can also find it within the code you posted on your widget, where it says:
(The numbers following 'div-' are your ID.) Save all changes.
6. Go to your blog and the widget should show on your sidebar. Now you can login to the widget and start inviting your friends to be part of your community!
