Plugin Description
This plugin provides you with shortcodes to insert your full LinkedIn profile
and a rotating scroller of your LinkedIn recommendations in any Wordpress page
or post. Please check vedovini.net for
examples.
The following shortcodes are available:
[li_recommendations width="480" length="200" interval="1000"] displays a
rotating scroller with the recommendations you received[li_profile] displays your LinkedIn profile. Optional attributes
are fields and lang to overide the general settings.[li_card] displays a simple LinkedIn card. Optional attributes
are picture_width and summary_length, and fields and lang to overide
the general settings.[li_updates] displays your network updates. Optional attributes are count
and only_self.[li_picture] displays the original profile picture (size may vary depending
on what you uploaded to LinkedIn). Optional attributes are width, height
and class.
To customize the rendering of the shortcodes you must create a linkedin folder
in your theme or in the wp-content folder and then copy the template file you
want to modify. The default template files are located in the plugin’s templates folder.
See this post for more details on customization: Showing more of your LinkedIn
profile with WP-LinkedIn
There are also several widgets. One widget displays the recommendations
scroller, one displays your network updates, and two widgets show a “profile
card” – one of which is the standard LinkedIn JavaScript profile widget, the
other uses a customizable template.
ATTENTION: Since v1.6 the call to add the javascript for the recommendations
slider to the page as been moved to the recommendations.php template. If you
customized that template you must add the following line to the top of your
custom template: wp_enqueue_script('responsive-scrollable');
We welcome volunteers to translate that plugin into more languages. If you wish
to help then contact @cvedovini on Twitter or
use that contact form.
Please check the WP-LinkedIn Multi-Users
extension if you need to show the profiles of multiple users.
And if you need to show company profiles or company updates, please check the
WP-LinkedIn for Companies
extension.
