linkedin share button is missing

You're right There is a bug in a code. LinkedIn changed how their behavior and we shouldn't be including a blank API key if none is set. It's a minor code change to fix, if you're up for trying.

In the /components/com_jfbconnect/libraries/provider/linkedin.php file, around line 122, you'll see:Simply remove that middle line so it looks like:Setting the Javascript API domain should have fixed things. That setting is necessary for some of the other social widgets from LinkedIn to function at all. The Share button can work without an API key though.. so, if you aren't using social login with LinkedIn and don't need to use the other LinkedIn widgets, I'd just remove the key and make that code change.

We'll make an update in our next release to properly detect if no API key is set.

I hope that helps, but if not, just let us know and we'll get you going.

Thanks,

Let us know how the above code change works for you. We're planning to include a similar change in our next release.

Regarding sh404SEF, you're correct that you don't have to create an App. You don't need to for JFBConnect either if all you want is to use the Share button. The App keys are for additional features that JFBConnect provides.

I hope that helps explain,

Can you send admin credentials for Joomla and FTP access to your site? There's something going on with the share button that I can't quite determine. It's not something we've seen before, but I would like to investigate it further.

To send credentials, please use the mail icon under my name to the left to send a private message.

I'm at a loss for what's happening with your page right now. I just modified some of our code so that it generates *the exact* output that the LinkedIn Share Button configuration tool generates. I placed that code in your site, and it still doesn't work. Feel free to test/check yourself. I was testing on loisir/culture/saint-sebastien-interview-avec-une-icone-sexy If you open the HTML and search for "IN/Share", you'll see the block of code, and it's identical to what LinkedIn suggests.

As for sh404SEF, I wasn't able to determine how to enable their social buttons. If you can tell me what I should do, and where I should look, I'd love to see what their LinkedIn share code looks like so I can see what the difference is.

Thanks,

I tried enabling just the "sh404 Social Plugins" or something like that, and nothing happened. Are there other sh404 plugins that need to be enabled as well? Definitely interested to see the code they are including to get things to work.

Thanks,
