Hi again,

everything works fine so far. Just the linkedin sharer does not include any text. Am I doing wrong something or is it a bug?

Best regards,

Arno

Hi Arno, it looks like LinkedIn removed the functionality we were using in this plugin (linking to https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle with parameters to pass in the highlighted text), so we'll need to fix it. Thanks for the heads up! Will let you know once we've fixed it.

@anythingcodes I've played around with this and have yet to find documentation or anyone with new parameters. The API v2 docs do not even mention this functionality... 🤷‍♂️

I will continue playing around with it, but thank you for the awesome work on this project! I just incorporated it on my site. 👍
