  Hi everyone!

  I’m having some trouble inserting the right link into the LinkedIn icon in the Social Media Icons widget. I’ve tried every possible link to my LinkedIn page, but it always says ‘page not found’.
  Can somebody help me please? :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  My friend found the solution.

  You have to change something in your LinkedIn account:
  – go to your profile.
  – hover the arrow next to ‘View profile as’ and click ‘manage public profile settings’.
  – on the right, you can change your public profile URL. Change it to http://linkedin.com/in/%5Byourname%5D.

  It should work now when you enter your name in the widget.

  Change it to http://linkedin.com/in/%5Byourname%5D.

  Sorry, that didn’t work right. It should be http://linkedin.com/in/ [yourname].
