Do I need to apply for approval from Linkedin

Hi,

You don’t need a developer account, but you do need to apply for your API keys which you do using your standard LinkedIn username and password.

There are detailed instructions within the plugin which sound complicated but are actually quite simple. The help pages in the plugin contain screenshots to guide you through the process.

Unfortunately all linked in plugins requires this step ??

If you need help let us know, and make sure any other linked in plugins are deactivated before trying to use this one as the LinkedIn API doesn’t like multiple plugins using the same API keys.

I got the same issue. I got previosly added a LinkedIn Application for

myblogsite.biz
which as app secret and key populated. Nothing else checked.
I think this was for another plugin I need to replace

I have put your generated redirect url in OAuth 2.0 I get a key mismatch error.

Do I need to create a new application? Can you suggest any values I need other than the generated:

https://myblogsite.biz/wp-content/plugins/linkedin-lite/linkedin_receiver.php

One thing the API seems to want is a https hosted image for the application. Any suggestions please/

Ah I figured I just need a dummy application. However, I can’t get passed the authorise app as I get a “something went wrong” error

I was able to authorise another Linked Plugin – which had a regen token option . This worked but I like the look of the additional fields your plugin displays … went it works that is ??
