Hi there!
I am having issues with the WordPress Plugin on LinkedIn - Basically what I am trying to do is having WordPress Posts (from http://easisell.com/blog) linked to my LinkedIn Account.
When I do so, I keep getting the following error:
"
Sorry, we can't find a WordPress blog at this address.
"
I've tried both of the following feeds:
http://feeds2.feedburner.com/easisell
http://easisell.com/blog/feed
Thanks for any help I can get,
Best Regards,
Laurent

Sorry - that didn't do the job.
I got that same error once again, as described above.
Best Regards,

Probably best to ask in the wordpress group on Linkedin.

Hey songdogtech,
Thanks for helping out.
LinkedIn was unable to help, so they thought it'd be best to ask the WordPress guys. Could it be due to an invalid RSS feed (i.e. one that does not validate with http://validator.w3.org/feed ) ?
If so, how would I go about fixing that issue?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Laurent

What validation errors do you get? Your feed works fine for me. Try disabling feedburner and any other feed plugins.

When I validate the feed I get the following errors:
"
This feed does not validate.
line 14, column 3: Undefined channel element: feedburner:info [help]
<feedburner:info uri="easisell" /><atom10:link xmlns:atom10="http://www.w ...
^
line 14, column 718: Missing feedburner:feedFlare attribute: href (20 occurrences) [help]
... f="http://www.thewayofmoney.com/feed" /><feedburner:feedFlare src="http: ...
^
In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations.
line 14, column 144: Unregistered link relationship: hub [help]
... ref="http://pubsubhubbub.appspot.com" /><media:copyright>Copyright 2009 ...
^
(and many many..many more lines
"All of the errors are listed here: http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http://feeds2.feedburner.com/easisell
I think I get the same kind of results with the feedburner URL.
The feed works fine for me, too, I mean I can view the raw feed source code and all, but it doesn't validate which I think causes it not to be recognized by the wordpress application on LinkedIn.
Oh, on a sidenote, I'm using the Thematic skin!
Best regards
Laurent

Read the errors; they all have to do with feedburner. Disable feedburner and any feed plugins.

I am having same problem. My two sites' feeds validate just fine with validator. Very annoying. Same thing is happening to a client on one of her sites but not the other.

Hello, since I have a LinkedIn profile I have included my blog RSS Feed into the wp app on LinkedIn.
In the past weeks I discovered that sometimes my Feed is wiped out and my wp blog posts are not visible anymore here on LinkedIn.
I was able to fix this by sumitting the feed again.
But now this does not work. I have also done the Feed validation http://validator.w3.org/feed service recommended here in the help section and it shows me that "This is a valid RSS feed."
I have again put in my feed http://inblurbs.com/blog/feed/ but it still does not work and my blog posts are not visibel yet.
How to solve this?
