Plugin no longer works with v2 and how to fix

this plugin stopped working, and I have had to make changes to it to get it going again – posted here to help others !

These changes the api URL to https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me to conform with V2, and take out the ‘sharing’ scope whoch is not allowed under default access (you need a partnership set-up to get this, which we don’t need!)

\linkedin-login.1.1.3\linkedin-login\includes\lib\PkliLogin.php

line 25 changed to
const _BASE_URL = 'https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me';

around line 217 changed to
`// Get first name, last name and email address, and user picture
$xml = $this->oauth->get(‘https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me’) ;
$xml = json_decode($xml);
$email_data = $this->oauth->get(‘https://api.linkedin.com/v2/emailAddress?q=members&projection=(elements*(handle~))’);
$email_data = json_decode($email_data);
$profile_pic = $this->oauth->get(‘https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me?projection=(id,profilePicture(displayImage~:playableStreams))’) ;
$profile_pic = json_decode($profile_pic);
$locale_lastName = $xml->lastName->preferredLocale->language.’_’.$xml->lastName->preferredLocale->country;
$lastName = $xml->lastName->localized->$locale_lastName;

$locale_firstName = $xml->firstName->preferredLocale->language.’_’.$xml->firstName->preferredLocale->country;
$firstName = $xml->firstName->localized->$locale_firstName;

$data = [
‘id’=>$xml->id,
‘first-name’=>$firstName,
‘last-name’=>$lastName,
’email-address’=>$email_data->elements[0]->{‘handle~’}->{’emailAddress’},
‘picture-url’=>$profile_pic->profilePicture->{‘displayImage~’}->elements[0]->identifiers[0]->identifier,
];

return (object)$data;`
