What's going wrong
Several site owners want more than the basic name and email from LinkedIn to appear on their members' WordPress profiles. Some asked how to fetch a logged-in user's profile at all. Others wanted to show the profile after registration, store job titles, company names, or country as user meta, or map LinkedIn fields into BuddyPress profile fields. One owner noticed that the plugin requests position and company data from LinkedIn but never saves it. Owners running directories, communities, or member portals need these details but have to write custom code. A mapping tool would let them choose which LinkedIn fields to store and where to show them.
