I figured it out.

I uploaded a copy of the “linkedin” profile badge I wanted, created a filed for the Linkedin url to my profile, and used the following code to create the “link”

if($wpum_linkedinurl != ” && $wpum_linkedinurl != ‘https://’)
$output .= “<p><img src= https://centralohioreo.com/images/li.gif&gt;</p>”;

each author now has a custom link to their linkedin profile!

That did it!!!! Thank you very much!!!!!!

Now I just need to learn why I needed to do that!!!

Thanks again!

Michael,

https://www.likoma.com/extended-profile/ is excatly what I want to do, however I guess I am not following how he combined them all together and how and what he named his files and where the are placed in the directory.

I guess I have a bit of studying to do.

Found a theme that fixed it for me.

There will be multi users with this blog making post, on top of that we are in the same field (real estate). We want to be able to aggragete or listings (having them agent branded) in to our blog w/out them going in to our “main” blog site (blog 1). Tyring to figure the best way to do this.

I am going to try MU though.

Thanks

This is the code from the permalink. Do you think it would hurt if if I removed the bold section?

Do you recomend another permalink plugin?

Yes, i deactivated my plugins, the problem is with the Customizable permalinks by yahoo webhosting.

Do I need permalinks and if I do, how do I go about fixing the prolem or is there another plugin I should load?

BTW, than you very much Moshu!!!!! Thisis the farthest I have got in a weekend, and the reason I dropped movable type!

I missed the “deactivate all plugins” at the bottom!

ahhh I see what you mean with the pulgins. Duh!!!

Checkign them, thanks again!

Moshu, thank you. I have gone through and recieved the following information: Solution
Check your wp-rss2.php and wp-atom.php files for blank lines outside of <? and ?> bracketed sections.
Check your wp-config.php file for blank lines outside of <? and ?> bracketed sections.
Check your theme’s functions.php file for blank lines outside of <? and ?> bracketed sections.
One by one, disable plugins and revalidate until you isolate the one causing the problem.

I have aliviated these lines and it still does not do the trick. Now I have to go through 1 by 1 of my plugins.

How do I tell which ones are plugins and which are not?

As well, I tried going through firefox and recieved this message.

XML Parsing Error: xml declaration not at start of external entity
Location: https://vanbrimmer.com/rocky/feed/
Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
^

Does this mean anything?

Thanks for your help!!!

When I click on the “Orange gizmo” as you put it, I get “Internet explorer cannot display this feed. This feed contains code errors”

Then it tells me to go back to the preivous page.

My expert analyisis is telling me that I have something jacked up or not installed correctly. The question is, what is it or how do I fix it?

Any ideas?
