Hi — I cant access personal or company accounts, so I dont have Olgas link. I can, however, walk you through exactly how to get it and how to test the LinkedIn button on the site.

  1. Fast option: ask Olga to send the link

    Quick message you can send her:

    Hi Olga — can you please send the LinkedIn page URL for our revived account so I can test the LinkedIn button on the site? Thanks!
  2. If you (or Anna) can log into LinkedIn — copy the URL yourself
    1. Sign in to LinkedIn.
    2. To get a company page URL: type the company name in the top search box and open the company page. Copy the full browser address bar URL. Example format:
      https://www.linkedin.com/company/your-company/
    3. To get a personal profile URL: click "Me" → "View profile" and copy the address bar URL. Example format:
      https://www.linkedin.com/in/yourname/
    4. If you are an admin of the company page: open the page in Admin view, then click "View as member" or "Public page" to see and copy the public URL.
  3. If the page isnt accessible publicly

    If the URL gives a 404 or forces login, the page may not be published or may be restricted. Ask Olga (or the page admin) to publish the page and check visibility settings.

  4. How to add the link to the website — simple HTML examples

    Basic link that opens in a new tab:

    <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/your-company/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Follow us on LinkedIn</a>

    Share button (opens LinkedIns share dialog). Replace the encoded URL and title with your page values:

    <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fyourwebsite.com&title=Your%20Title" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Share on LinkedIn</a>
  5. How to test the button
    1. Paste the link into the button field in your CMS or into the HTML for the button.
    2. Open the staging site, click the LinkedIn button and confirm it opens the LinkedIn page in a new tab.
    3. If it goes to a login page or an error, the LinkedIn page likely isnt public — ask Olga to publish or change permissions.

If you want, I can draft a slightly longer message to Olga asking for the link and confirmation that the page is public. Tell me whether you want a short/casual or a formal message and Ill write it for you. Or paste the link here and Ill check the HTML for you.
