Google+ Button not doing anything.
I added the code <a class="addthis_button_google_plusone_badge" > to my addthis. It shows the button but when i click it, it just opens up the same page in a new tab. Any idea? Why isnt it going to google + site?

The Google+ Badge allows people to follow you on Google+. If you want to share something to the user's Google+ page you should use either the +1 button or our Google+ Share button:
<a class="addthis_button_google_plusone"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_google_plusone_share"></a>
In order for that to work you need to configure your Google+ user ID, like this:
<a class="addthis_button_google_plusone_badge" addthis:userid="YOUR USERID"></a>
Replace YOUR USERID with your Google+ user ID
<a class="addthis_button_google_plusone_badge" addthis:userid="YOUR USERID"></a>
Replace YOUR USERID with your Google+ user ID
Why does it have to be my user id? Shouldnt it post from the other users id?
