Also sorry for the support questions I haven’t had time to answer…

Hi,

A few questions/ideas:

I’m not sure the header is the right place to put something lik this. Maybe try in another place.

Are you using the LinkedIn API to parse user profiles. Because parsing user profiles based on URLs only works if you are NOT using LinkedIn API (and therefore if you have your LinkedIn SC settings empty) ?

Finally, how does your URLs look like ?

Hi zebediah,

I believe I fixed the problem. If you can confirm me that it works (again, using the svn trunk), I will create a new release after you confirm…

Hi zebediah,

Thanks for the feedback but can you give me a link to your LinkedIn profile and let me know which position exactly is not pulled ?

Thank you,

Hi,

This is probably because you’re using the public profile parsing, and LinkedIn changed the HTML used to display a public profile. Anyway it should be fixed in the SVN trunk of the plugin ( https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/linkedin-sc/trunk/ ).

If someone can confirm me that it works I will create a new release of the plugin…

I don’t think it’s related to that, but if the error disappeared… ??

Let me know if it reappears…

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, I was really busy last week.

On which page of your site do you have that problem ?

Hi Chris,

As explained on the plugin’s page and on my blog, you NEED to have your administration interface accessible in HTTPS to get the plugin working with the LinkedIn API. So you need to set up HTTPS on your server, otherwise it will not work…

Regards,

Hi Chris,

Certifications are the only part of your page that requires the use of LinkedIn API. So what I believe is that for some reason the plugin is not using the LinkedIn API to parse your profile, but the public profile.

I would advise you to:
1. Make sure your administration interface is using HTTPS
2. Make sure the author (author in the wordpress sense) of the page https://www.ckmarketing.de/leistungen/vita/ is the same as the one you used to sign in with LinkedIn
3. Make sure you have all the API and secret key correctly entered…

Let me know if that helped…

Ok I just created a release (1.1.4). It should appear on WordPress in a few minutes.

Let me know if it works for you…

Hi martin,

Everything should be fixed on the SVN. If you know how to use SVN, please check out the code from https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/linkedin-sc/trunk and let me know if it works for your case.

If you don’t know how to use, let me know and I’ll create a release.

Best regards,

Hi Andrew,

I had missed something in the parsing of LinkedIn’s HTML. It is now fixed in the SVN version of the plugin. If you know how to use SVN, you can update the plugin’s code using the repository at: https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/linkedin-sc/trunk

Otherwise, wait a bit more until I make a new release.

Best regards,

Hi andrew,

From the shortcodes you posted, it seems that you forgot to put a [/linkedinsc_positions] after closing your div. It might be the reason why the plugin only displays your current position…

Let me know if this helped…

Hi Martin,

LinkedIn API support should still be considered as experimental, in alpha state let’s say. There are still some glitches, on my side and on LinkedIn’s side (consider the feature I’m using in the plugin was released 2 days ago by LinkedIn).

However, I just updated the plugin to support most of the new HTML, so when you update to v1.1.3 you should see your CV appear again ??

Hi Martin,

Unfortunately, I just discovered it, the fact that public profile parsing does not work is not my fault…

Take a look at my LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/guillaumev. LinkedIn changed the HTML being used to display the profile, so obviously, the rules that were being used by the plugin to parse a public profile do not apply anymore…

I’ll see what I can do about that, but it might take time to get it fixed…
