  • FYI, posted this on another forum, but found my resolution much easier:

    OK, I figured out how to do it for LinkedIn, so you can share a company link and not a username profile, and will share what I did, so here you go:

    1. In WordPress, go to – Plugins – Edit Plugins and find this page of code you’ll need to edit:
    jetpack/modules/widgets/social-media-icons.php

    2. Go into the page, and find this code to edit:
    ‘linkedin’ => array( ‘LinkedIn’, ‘https://www.linkedin.com/in/%s/’ ),

    3. Simply change it to the following (see ‘in’ was changed’ to ‘company’:
    ‘linkedin’ => array( ‘LinkedIn’, ‘https://www.linkedin.com/company/%s/’ ),

    4. Go into the Social Media Icons Jetpack widget, and put your company ID in the field for “LinkedIn username:” (even though it’s not the username, it will work).

    That should do it! Let me know if you have any issues or if it worked for you too.

    Thanks,
    Brad
