reed is there a way to show the linkedin icon in the h-card? or, put it another way, why is the linkedin icon not showing on my sites? :)

GWG reed: It should show...I have it on mine... where are you putting the link?
#
reed GWG: on the profile page, in the LinkedIn Profile URL https://maffulli.net/wp-admin/profile.php ... I put https://www.linkedin.com/in/maffulli/ but it's not showing
#
reed that's where I also put the link to github, mastodon, twitter... those show up
#
reed and disappear when I remove them, too :)
#
GWG reed, I don't think I put a LinkedIn box...must be from another plugin
#
reed GWG: how does it show on yours?
#
GWG https://david.shanske.com/
#
reed where did you put the link?
#
reed does it need to go in profile.php or somewhere else?
#
GWG reed: There should be an other field in there
#
reed I don't see anything else related to linkedin
#
reed I put mock data in the other fields, the icons show up
#
GWG It isn't You can't cover every network, that's what other is for
#
reed OHhhhh
#
reed you're saying that there is not a field dedicated to LinkedIn?
#
reed now I get it :) that is one of the most confusing UX I've had so far... because the other fields are correctly populated except linkedin
#
reed so I assumed that the h-card was using those fields... except I learn now that linkedin field is not added by the indieweb/hcard plugin
#
reed maybe Yoast addes that field to profile.php or Jetpack... I don't run other plugins except the indieweb ones
#
GWG reed: I'll have to check...I tried to add popular metadata... but I could look at Yoast and Jetpack
#
reed thanks GWG , at least now I know why that wasnt' popping up
#
GWG reed: I'll look into the other options
