# LinkedIn WordPress Application

 * So there was a topic regarding this in the past year that never appeared to be
   solved [ and the thread closed.](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/linkedin-application)
 * Just for the sake of completeness and to show LinkedIn’s reply, here is the result
   of my trouble ticket submission to LinkedIn:
 * My ticket:
    A client of my employer has requested that his WordPress blog be 
   attached to LinkedIn, however, when entering the URL of his website the following
   error is consistently generated: “Sorry, we can’t find a WordPress blog at this
   address.”
 * The entire website is built using WordPress. I have tried the following URLs 
   with no luck:
    boothsweet.com [http://www.boothsweet.com](http://www.boothsweet.com)
   [http://boothsweet.com](http://boothsweet.com) [http://www.boothsweet.com](http://www.boothsweet.com)
 * As well as the following feed URLs:
    boothsweet.com/feed [http://www.boothsweet.com/feed](http://www.boothsweet.com/feed)
   [http://boothsweet.com/feed](http://boothsweet.com/feed) [http://www.boothsweet.com/feed](http://www.boothsweet.com/feed)
   boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2 [http://www.boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2](http://www.boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2)
   [http://boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2](http://boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2) [http://www.boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2](http://www.boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2)
 * All of these URLs are valid, if I try marking off “Show only recent posts tagged
   LinkedIn” I receive the following error:
    “The feed URL [http://boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2&tag=linkedin](http://boothsweet.com/?feed=rss2&tag=linkedin)
   is inaccessible” Which makes more sense, as it seems that the application is 
   trying to pull the information from the right place (although the tag LinkedIn
   does not exist and this error is understandable).
 * The error message is less than helpful – there is no indication as to what the
   problem is, and the message is, frankly, incorrect – the entire website is a 
   WordPress system.
 * LinkedIn’s response:
    While the application you have inquired about is hosted
   on LinkedIn’s platform, the details you have inquired about were designed by 
   our partner, WordPress. Based on our review of your inquiry, we expect you will

   be able to escalate it to us with appropriate technical details on your behalf.
 * Have a great day and thank you for being a valued member of our LinkedIn community!
 * ——————————–
 * The question had been raised, and I believe unanswered, “Is this application 
   only for wordpress.com blogs?” – I have found that I can indeed attach other 
   self hosted installations, so I don’t believe that to be the case.
 * The installation in question does have the feed links in the <head> as well. 
   I’d like to think I’m not completely stupid, however, this just has me stumped
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated
