Add +1 buttons to your blog manually

Want +1 button on your Blogger blog, but you don’t want the full share widget?  Here’s how you can manually add only the +1 button to your blog:

• Configure your +1 button and get the code from Google.
• Remove href attribute of <g:plusone> starting tag; insert expr:href='data:post.canonicalUrl' in its place.  For example, the code on my blog is: <g:plusone expr:href="data:post.canonicalUrl" size="medium"/>
• Insert the code in your blog’s template.
• Open Blogger > your blog > Design > Edit HTML.
• Check “Expand Widget Templates”.
• Look for <div class="post-footer">
  if you want to place the +1 button at the bottom of each post; look for <div class="post-header"> if you want it at the top of each post.
• Paste the +1 button’s code.  View your blog to see if the button appears at the right place, and adjust the placing accordingly.
