Hi there

I am looking to see if anyone can advise if this module is suitable to set-up for when my client creates a node, they then wish to post it directly to their business/personal linkedin page. Can someone advise if this is the correct module, or is there another suitable module which i need to use?

Thanks

Title: Posting a node to LinkedIn » Creating a LinkedIn account not working
Issue tags: +drupal 7

I have managed to get this working so far, however when i go to my admin account and create a LinkedIn account i get a message 'You must first authorize LinkedIn integration to use related features.'. When selecting the 'Go LinkiedIn' button, nothing happens.

Has anyone else had similar problems and know how to fix this?

I have this same exact same problem. I click the button and nothing happens.

Has anybody come across this and managed to fix this?

The 7.x branch probably needs some love. It's only been sporadically updated in the past year. I'll set it up real quick and see if I have the same problem.

Looks like the bug is related to the Drupal 7 overlay. In my test site, when I click the "Go LinkedIn" button from the overlay (i.e. http://yoursite.com/user#overlay=user/1/edit/linkedin), it fails. When I click it without the overlay, it works correctly (i.e. http://yoursite.com/user/1/edit/linkedin).

A work around for now is to disable the overlay module.

We should be able to fix this by having the "Go LinkedIn" button open the LinkedIn OAuth page in a new window. That might cause some weird workflow though.

I can confirm that overlay is the issue.

can you give me some clues about why overlay would be an issue?
