- The appropriate author’s Google+ profile is used for each single post and page.
- The plugin adds both the rel=”author” and rel=”publisher” on single posts and pages.

- You can set a default Google+ profile to be used as a fallback if there’s no Google+ profile specified for an author in his WP user profile settings.
How to use GooglePlus Multi-Authorship?
Install and activate GooglePlus Multi-Authorship plugin.
After activation each author should add their Google+ profile URL in their WP user profile settings.
Visit your admin area Dashboard -> Settings -> G+ Multi-Authorship admin page and here you can provide a default Google+ author profile below. This will be used when an author has not added a Google Plus profile in his/her WP user profile settings. Leave it blank if you don’t want to use a default.
