 * Hi,
 * since the last update, the plugin can’t connect to the linkedin account. The 
   red error message is always here, and the authorization never appear in the linkedin
   preferences.
 * In addition to that, the plugin in this state is blocking the post publication.
 * thanks

 * Hi, the last update was 2 months ago and it was minor. What does the error message
   actually say?
 * You said: “and the authorization never appear in the linkedin preferences.” Send
   me a screenshot of the plugin settings on the connect tab not showing the “Connect
   with Linkedin” button. Thanks,

 * Hi, thanks for the answer,
 * here is all I can have in the plugin options, I can’t click on the differents
   dongles :
 * When I click on the “connect with linkedin” button I have the linedkin screen
   where I have to accept the link bewteen the plugin and linkedin, but when I do
   accept, I go back to my site, and still have the red message and the “connect
   with linkedin” button.
 * In my linkedin preferences, I should see the plugin is the authorised services,
   but he’s not.

   I’ve deleted your offer to login to your user’s site. I’m am 100% sure you mean
   well but please _never ask for credentials on these forums._

 * Now for the why: The internet is a wonderful place full of very nice people and
   a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some
   ones keys to your house you are trusting they wont steal anything. Likewise the
   person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.
 * If something was to go wrong, then you the author may well legally become liable
   for damages, which they would not normally have been as their software is provided
   without warranty.
 * **Please be aware that repeatedly asking for credentials will result in us asking
   you to repeatedly stop before escalating up to the plugins team.**
