How is it working? Can you share successfully to LinkedIn? Does it cost anything?

I am not.

However you may consider sassy social, add to any, grow social or social rocket as alternatives if you are finding it difficult to share to linkedin - normally it doesn't cost anything.

I am using grow social and currently have issues sharing to linked in.

Is amyone using jetpack social sharing?

Getting Started

I am again having difficulty sending my articles to LinkedIn by share buttons. Trying different share buttons does not help. The problem is within LinkedIn. Reloading my feed p

Zoopie, can I copy an entire article and then paste it to LinkedIn in the "post" section of LinkedIn?

You can try the URL as well and manually.

From about 6 months ago I had problems using the share app to Linkedin. I now just do the individual copy and paste, takes a bit (microseconds) longer, but I know it has been done...

Thank you, Zoopie!

I use "Addd To Any" because I found it to be the litest and reliable.

Richardgb, does it share to LinkedIn?

Yes. it has a linkedin icon... "In"...

But does it actually share to LinkedIn? Please test it and let me know. If it does, it will be highly unusual. Thanks?

Since I don't use Linkedin myself I don't know...
However, a little research leads me to believe we'd need to first create a "Company Page" on Linkedin and then set it up for sharing our WordPress posts on...

Richard, I have over 4300 connections to LinkedIn members and routinely share my posts in one way or another. I am afraid that LinkedIn may be disallowing shares directly from Word Press. No share plug in works. The problem seems to be with LinkedIn, not the share buttons. But I am open to suggestions. I wish I had a way to contact LinkedIn.


OK, Richard
Here's a link that might be useful.

Thanks, Richard. I will try to understand that. I am not technically inclined, but it seems to address my issue.

Richard, I have discovered a plug in - WP to LinkedIn automatic publish. This is a very simple solution and I hope it works.

Let us know how it goes....

Try Grow Social; I have it.

I just tried it, and it is not loading; you may want to do it manually.

Other plugins include sassy social, add to any or social rocket.

Abie, I have tried other social plug ins. They all do not load to LinkedIn, at least not consistently
I can load by a Facebook mobile share, but this only appears as a LinkedIn link, which is not nearly as good as a normal share from Word Press. I have been able to play around with reloading my feed page in LinkedIn with some success, but not for my last article. Is there any way to contact LinkedIn about this? What do you mean by doing it manually? Constructing it on LinkedIn from the beginning? Thanks for any answers.

I would do it manually till it resolves - it could be an error or a glitch on the social media servers

I am getting long -around 300 words - comments now about twice per week. I can't read the language, but it usually comes from a source that ends in ru. So Russian? The comments

How very annoying, good reply from Kyle.

You will naturally get spam, and you can mark these as spam as you get them to your website. This is natural for all website, as spam detection doesn't always get caught (and we have measures we take on our end to prevent spam).

These will not impact you, just make sure you aren't publishing content like this to your website and you always want to "approve" content before it goes live on your website.

Thanks, Kyle.

You want to delete those.

Thanks to TheAbie. I installed WP Armour plug-in and hope this solves the problem.

You're most welcome :)
