 * Have installed and entered Linkedin info like shown below (edited).
    Have put
   the shorthand into a page and HTML shows up, but no profile info at all. Am I
   supposed to enter my profile ID somewhere?
 *     ```
       define('LINKEDIN_APPKEY', get_option('xxxxwthyfy4q'));
       define('LINKEDIN_APPSECRET', get_option('xxxxayZJSlQi7fPZ'));
       define('LINKEDIN_USERTOKEN', get_option('xxxx57b4-89c9-4815-a44e-4503ddde10ad'));
       define('LINKEDIN_USERSECRET', get_option('xxxxc741-1fb0-4cb5-8ce9-38ab1e3b0892'));
   
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS_BASIC', 'id, first-name, last-name, picture-url, headline, location, industry, public-profile-url');
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS_DEFAULT', 'summary, specialties, languages, skills, educations, positions, recommendations-received');
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS', LINKEDIN_FIELDS_BASIC . ', ' . get_option('wp-linkedin_fields', LINKEDIN_FIELDS_DEFAULT));
       ```

 * Y U NO use wordpress admin interface???
 * Besides that this is never gonna work…
    You are going to pull the value of an
   option called “xxxxwthyfy4q”. That option does not exist because it is called“
   wp-linkedin_appkey”.
 * You could however try this (might not work I’m not very good at PHP):
 *     ```
       define('LINKEDIN_APPKEY', 'xxxxwthyfy4q');
       define('LINKEDIN_APPSECRET', 'xxxxayZJSlQi7fPZ');
       define('LINKEDIN_USERTOKEN', 'xxxx57b4-89c9-4815-a44e-4503ddde10ad');
       define('LINKEDIN_USERSECRET', 'xxxxc741-1fb0-4cb5-8ce9-38ab1e3b0892');
   
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS_BASIC', 'id, first-name, last-name, picture-url, headline, location, industry, public-profile-url');
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS_DEFAULT', 'summary, specialties, languages, skills, educations, positions, recommendations-received');
       define('LINKEDIN_FIELDS', LINKEDIN_FIELDS_BASIC . ', ' . get_option('wp-linkedin_fields', LINKEDIN_FIELDS_DEFAULT));
       ```

 * Do not modify the php in the plugin as any modification will be overridden with
   the next plugin update.
 * Instead go to the plugin option page `Settings -> LinkedIn` and enter your keys
   here.

 * eek; I got all my keys and secrets entered, but I’m still not sure how to include
   it with my site. [li_profile] is the beginning of something I’m sure, but I tried
   the URL for my Linkdin profile and it breaks the entire post.
 * Help?
 * How do you enter it into your site? I did a pdf embed plugin that used [embed]
   url.pdf[/embed] but that doesn’t work with [li_profile]profileurl[/li_profile]
 * Thank you,
    Justin

 * Hello,
 * Documentation for the shortcodes comes with the plugin, you can read it here 
   [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-linkedin/installation/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-linkedin/installation/)
 * Basically, once you entered your keys, you just need to drop the shortcode where
   you need it. The syntax for the profile shortcode is just [li_profile] no need
   to add anything else.
 * Regards,
    C.
