How to implement Company profile widget for a client

Hi All,

I am working on SDL Tridion using java and vbscript. I want to implement the company profile widget for my client. I have never implemented any linked-in widget as of now.

I tried getting the plugin-code which i need to paste on my website. What after that? Does it includes any license which my client needs to buy or any sort of information which my client needs to pass to you...

I am totally blank.So please let me know how to proceed.

Regards,
Varun R Doharey

All you need to do is copy and paste the HTML from the plugin builder into your page and it will work. You don't' need a license or anything else to use it.

Hi Kirsten,
I already did the same, i got the code of the company profile widget for my company which is as below:

<script src="http://platform.linkedin.com/in.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="IN/CompanyProfile" data-id="20186" data-format="inline"></script>

I pasted these scripts in <head> tag of the html page but nothing seemed to appear?

So i raised the query on the forum. What else is needed to make the things work....

Hi Varun,

Yep, the script tag with type IN/CompanyProfile must be in the body of the page (as you likely learned) and not in the head.
