    Hello – In trying to add our LinkedIn page to our Social link in bio page via the social icons section, I notice that the prepopulated LinkedIn prefix is linkedin.com/in/. This, however, is not the correct prefix for some LinkedIn accounts. For instance, our program (for which this Social account is used) has our LinkedIn page at: https://www.linkedin.com/school/bridges-academy/

    Is it possible to remove that prepopulated partial URL from the LinkedIn social icon field? LinkedIn does not properly redirect when using iterations of the /in URL construction. Thanks!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello Jon,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    To link to your school’s LinkedIn page, you can use a small workaround: Simply enter ../school/bridges-academy/ in the input field. The ../ is the key part here, as it will replace the /in part of the URL and link correctly to your school’s page.

    If there’s anything more we can help you with, please let us know.

    With kind regards
