FB Linkedin Resume

FB Linkedin Resume is a WordPress plugin that allows you to publish all your LinkedIn public profile (or just some selected parts) on your blog.

It also supports custom language and translations.

Screenshots

Demo

The home page of my professional Italian website is 90% done with FB Linkedin Resume.

Details

This plugin uses a new way of processing your LinkedIn profile to extract all
the information you need to publish on your blog.
Using HTML DOM parsing we avoid all the possible bugs and malfunctions due to
regular expression parsing, this way we’re way more sure that our plugin is
absolutely resistant to all the LinkedIn HTML changes that could occur in
the future.

It also outputs the LinkedIn HTML parts instead of creating new HTML, this way
we’re sure that it supports and will support all possible LinkedIn options
for every part of your profile.

It features two ways of usage:

1. Just print out the whole profile without customizations.
2. Extract single parts of your profile and print each one where you want.

Supported shortcodes

  • fb_linkedin_resume_full: prints all your LinkedIn public profile.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_header: prints the upper badge.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_summary: prints the “summary” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_experience: prints the “experience” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_certifications: prints the “certifications” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_skills: prints the “certifications” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_languages: prints the “languages” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_education: prints the “education” section.
  • fb_linkedin_resume_additional: prints the “additional” section.

Every shortcode accept a “lang” parameter that will allow you to override default profile language (also if set in the plugin options).

Every shortcode (except the “full” one) accept a “title” parameter that will allow you to customize the section title (translating it or changing it the way you want). Eg: [fb_linkedin_resume_experience title="Esperienze lavorative"].

The “additional” shortcode supports more parameters (title, title_interests, title_honors), eg: [fb_linkedin_resume_additional title="Informazioni aggiuntive" title_interests="Interessi" title_honors="Premi e riconoscimenti"].

Download

    This is an AWSOME plugin. Thanks a lot. I do have 1 question. Is there any chance you could have it support multiple linkedin profiles. I’m putting together a blog that i want friends to contribute and i’d like to give them a page each where they can show their own linkedin profile. Many thanks.

    http://www.infinite-possibility.com/joe-pine

    http://www.infinite-possibility.com/kim-korn

    Why do they look different??

  26. Fabrizio Balliano on Jul 31, 2011 | Reply

    cause the second one has different privacy settings (you can chack it out just watching the original linkedin page without loggin in), anyway your wp css is pretty messed up, the plugin css was made to work with default skins (and works perfectly also with some custom ones I tested) but your theme is really really strange and you’ll have to write some css to make is look good.

    Hi,

    My provider does not allow “allow url fopen”. They say I should use an alternative:

    $file = “http://somelocation.com/somefile.xml”;
    $fp = fopen($file, “r”);

    This code with curl:

    $file = “http://somelocation.com/somefile.xml”;
    $ch = curl_init($file);
    $fp = @fopen(“temp.xml”, “w”);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    fclose($fp);
    $file = “temp.xml”;
    $fp = fopen($file, “r”);

    I also should add write permissions so curl can write in temp.xml.

    Can you tell me if this alternative will work for your great plugin and in wich file I should change it?

    Good plugin Fabrizio. This let me time for other things rather than copy my linkedIn profile on a page of my wordpress blog :)
    The interesting feature is the link with linkedIn (naturally, linkedIn was thought to be linked :P) that let your page always up to date with your profile.
    Should be interesting something to add your full profile but with a “custom” style; for example something you can have using ResumeBuilder by LinkedIn: http://resume.linkedinlabs.com/fkpzv1esf (just to point you to an example).
    But good job. Thank you ;)

    Do I have to manually write it into the PHP?

    3. Edit plugin options providing your LinkedIn profile URL (WHERE?!?!?)

    Pity … 99% of this plug is just wonderful. Unfortunately no matter what I do I cannot get the body of the full resume (fb_linkedin_resume_full) to wrap within the margins of the page (or post). the headers are fine but the text under each position extends to the end of the page, and it seems I cannot even override it with a div wrapper.

    hello,

    I have installed a fb-linkedin-resume plugin on site which pull users linkedin profile on site.

    right now it allow admin to put URL from admin section, where admin only has access and edit, but I need to allow user who want to register on site they submit their linkedin URL in the profile field and their linkedin profile info get pull on site.

    But I am not able to call the function from fb-linkedin-resume file in author.php file where user enter his linkedin profile URL.

    Ijust want to call “fb_linkedin_resume_header($params)” function in wordpress function.php file but when I call the site goes blank

    Can anybody tell me how can I just include the plugin location and add function to the the user linkedin input field in author.php.

    tell me whether how can I include the plugin file location here, also I have already copied plugin files in theme folder.

    please tell me correct way to do this

    Thanks

    can you just tell me how can I include only [fb_linkedin_resume_header] to show profile header into function.php.

    when I do it the site goes black, how can I define function or call plugin file, so that it will work.

    or can you provide me any function that will fetch user profile when user submit the link,

    waiting…

    HI Fabrizio Balliano

    I dont know if its Linked In, or the plugin or my theme. But I can no longer se the details under each headline: ie: Summary shows, but the content below does not. If you mark it with your markor, it becomes clear, that the text is white on a white bg. How can i change the color of the text ?

    Hey great plug in… a little hard to get working but its very nice now that it is. My question is when I am in WP in the edit plugins section and I go to the style sheet to make some changes, nothing happens. It also says (inactive) next to the css. Dose this mean my site is over riding the css?

  61. Fabrizio Balliano on Nov 22, 2011 | Reply

    @Ben: don’t know why it says so but the best way is not to edit plugin’s css but to edit your own theme’s css

  62. Ben Bernard on Nov 22, 2011 | Reply

    I’m happy with my theme’s css. Maybe since I’m new to this its over my head. But I can’t figure out how the plug in is interpreting the linkedin data to determine what is an h1 and so on to apply the css. Right now it has my position title huge and the company i worked for really small and I would like to flip them. Same as for my education, the part that has my degree much larger and in bold and the name of my school is really small. Thank you so much!!!

  63. Fabrizio Balliano on Nov 22, 2011 | Reply

    @Ben: it’s not a matter of being happy with your theme, it’s the fact that if you patch the plugin’s files your changes will be lost when you’ll upgrade the plugin.

  64. Ben Bernard on Nov 23, 2011 | Reply

    Im really confused. On linkedin everything is displayed correctly with my Company in size 16 font or something and my position in size 12. And on the css to my site, h1′s are set to size 16 and h2′s are size 12. What do I need to modify so its is displayed the same as it is on linkedin. Because right now the plug in has them swapped.

  65. Fabrizio Balliano on Nov 23, 2011 | Reply

    @Ben: i’m using the same linkedin’s css, using %sized fonts if i remember correclty so, if your theme does not handle them automatically, you’ll have to adjust them i’m sorry,

    Fabrizio,

    This is an incredible plugin for both LI and WP users – great job.

    Here’s a question. Do you know if it’s possible to force a line between items listed in experience? I don’t think there is since the line comes from the data pulled in from LinkedIn, e.g., a line separates education items, but not experience items.

  67. Michael Steeleworthy on Nov 27, 2011 | Reply

    Fabrizio,

    I decided to just make a workaround in the CSS rather than thinking about how to force something into the data your plugin pulls from LinkedIn. I added this to the plugin’s CSS:

    #profile-experience h3 {padding-top: 25px};

    It’s Simple enough. It adds a bit of padding to the top of the title field. Results will vary, given the theme’s font choice and size, etc, but it will do quite well.

    Thanks again for your hard work on this plugin.

    -ms

  68. Fabrizio Balliano on Nov 28, 2011 | Reply

    @Michael: since I only print out the original linkedin HTML there’s no way to add the line (except patching the plugin itself modifying the linkedin html before printing it out but i would not suggest you to do that) anyway there should be some way to do that only using some CSS rules. thanks for your comments!

  70. Fabrizio Balliano on Dec 1, 2011 | Reply

    did you use the “full” also on your french cv page? it doesn’t seem so, so you should use the same approach for english too, the point is that the “full” is the complete linkedin’s html and it could not match your theme’ styles so another way to go is to create the right stylesheets

    Hi Fabrizio,

    very nice plugin…

    I have a bit of a problem though, took me a while to figure out the problem. I can only make a short url in my linkedin profile like this: ‘nl.linkedin.com/in/itschuur’ so with a ‘nl’ prefix and then itschuur as suffix will not work in your plugin settings (i think it’s because of the ‘nl.’ prefix). Strange thing is: ‘www.linkedin.com/in/itschuur’ does work if you type it in your browser. There must be some reason that the redirect does not work in your plugin. Do you happen to know a fix for this?

  87. Peter on May 8, 2012 | Reply

    On a hindsight; this doesn’t seem to be the problem, since several ‘native’ urls do not work either. Sorry to have bothered you with this I have no idea why I get a ‘FB Linkedin Resume: unable to connect to LinkedIn website’ error on my (and a lot of other) suffix, and when i use f.i. ‘esjohnson’ as a suffix, it works fine…

  88. Fabrizio Balliano on May 8, 2012 | Reply

    @Peter: you should be able to use the full profile URL in the username configuration, the plugin should detect that you’re using the full url instead of just the username and work in a smartly different way.

    anyway if you get unable to connect it means that your hosting does not allow you to run php fopen instructions with remote urls, for security reasons.

  89. Peter on May 8, 2012 | Reply

    Hello Fabrizio,

    yes, I thought that was the problem at first as well. But some profiles work, and others do not. Can’t figure out why (yet) but I think it has to do with the way the Linkedin public profiles are set up. If I find out, I will let you know here.

    Thanks so far!

    Hello Fabrizio,

    Here the same problem. Until a few weeks ago the plugin was working fine with the profile name of my client. Now I get the message “FB Linkedin Resume: unable to connect to LinkedIn website.” Nothing was changed in the url of the account. It worked before, but no more. Maybe LinkedIn has changed something which made your plugin break (for me ;-)

    I have the same problem as Peter. I cannot show my linkedin profile. I contacted one.com support and the told me they support php fopen, but if any other port than 80 is used, their firewall will most likely block it! That may be the problem ?

    you should create a little php script to test something like fopen(“your-linkedin-profile-url”), also if my plugin uses a wordpress’ built-in function to download remote files…

    @Fabrizio: My provider didn’t stop using fopen on their servers. Before the plugin worked now it doesn’t anymore and I’m not the only one.
    Apparantly your plugin doesn’t work well anymore with Linkedin’s configuration. If you’re not willing to figure out why a lot of profiles don’t show anymore, please tell. Then I (we) can install other plugins and stop using yours…

    the plugin is still working, you can see it working on my personal website, i don’t know what happened on your hosting or on your linkedin profile. yours surely is not the way to report bugs.

    send me your profile full url and we’ll see.

    @Fabrizio: The full url of my clients profile on LinkedIn is:
    http://www.linkedin.com/pub/marianne-kraaijeveld/19/554/6b2/nl

    [fb_linkedin_resume_full user=http://www.linkedin.com/pub/marianne-kraaijeveld/19/554/6b2/nl] is working fine for me

    @Fabrizio: What I had was:
    in “FB LinkedIn Resume options”, the full url
    in the page: [fb_linkedin_resume_full]

    now I have in the page:
    [fb_linkedin_resume_full user=http://www.linkedin.com/pub/marianne-kraaijeveld/19/554/6b2/nl]
    and in the “FB LinkedIn Resume options”, the full url.

    Not working.
    With nothing filled in in the “FB LinkedIn Resume options”, it’s not working either.

    The server configuration says: allow_url_fopen On

    i don’t know what it is but it’s something with wordpress and remote url retrieve, i use the standard wp_remote_get function that’s not written by me and, on your server, it cannot download the profile url.

    wp_remote_get is a bit complex but i’m pretty sure that’s were you’ve to debug.

    a test case:
    $linkedin_html = wp_remote_get(“http://yourprofileurl”);
    print_r(linkedin_html);

    @Fabrizio: I’m a designer not a programmer, so I haven’t got a clue what to do with:
    $linkedin_html = wp_remote_get(“http://yourprofileurl”);
    print_r(linkedin_html);

    Thanx for your help, but I think it stops here for me, and maybe someone has a sollution in the future.

    I’m sorry but I don’t think it’s a problem with the plugin but with your server’s security policies
