Hi all,
Since LinkedIn updated their API to v2, none of the WordPress LinkedIn page feed plugins work anymore.
This has been the case for going on 2 years now. Yes sure there are plugins to do so that add a widget, but the service is compiled and fed from middle server, like Elfsight, SociableKIT, Tagembed, Tagbox, Juicer and Embedsolcial.
I am building a web app for a client and need to provide their LinkedIn feed in the footer of each page. ITs a realty big project, so I have to be extra conservative about middle server crap that feed excessive files for simple things like the feed I require. Due to them offering all sorts of setup types, themes, effects, etc. You end up getting all the CSS, JS and images with the feed with no control over it.
I need to create the feed directly from LinkedIn on my server, I have a developer account with LinkedIn, already with all the required and approved for use API packages. And I am the super admin of the company page I want to pull the feed from.
I have done loads of searching and reading looking for an answer, and found nothing. Many of the source I have read say it cant be done any more and thats why everyone has stopped development on their plugins. IT doesnt make sense to me because the above listed links to the companies providing widgets for the same purpose can do it so I dont accept it cant be done.
The most promising lead I could find was this one, but its not a WordPress php solution. But the principle is the same right?

Can anyone help me achieve this?
Big Up and Respect to the community and forum staff!
