You can seamlessly add LinkedIn posts, comments, and recommendations directly to your testimonial space.


Steps

For Post

  1. Within your space dashboard / URL import

    1. While on LinkedIn, click the three dots (...) at the top-right corner of a post to copy the link to it.

      (You probably see the Add testimonial option at the bottom of the list. 😜 Yes, that's the magic of our Chrome extension. With that, you can also directly add LinkedIn posts to your Testimonial space from LinkedIn. Make sure you check it out below. )

    2. Once copied, navigate to your testimonial space, choose "Social Media" under the Integrations option on the left sidebar, then click the LinkedIn option.

    3. Our pop-up modal will show, paste the link you copied from the first to the input field. You can check "Add to My Wall of Love" if you want to.

    4. Finally, click Add to add to your testimonial space.

Comments

  1. First, make sure our Chrome extension is downloaded and installed.

  2. Log in with your registered method, either Google or email/password. This is what it looks like once you sign in successfully.

    3.1 Once you log in to the extension, you may go into the Linkein post and click on the three-dot option to see the Testimonial option.

    3.2 Once you log in to the extension, you may go into the Linkein comment and click on the three-dot option to see the Testimonial option.

4. A pop-up modal like below will show up. We will automatically get the person's name, profile picture, and title. In rare cases, the data might be wrong or not filled in, so please double-check.

📝 As LinkedIn constantly updates its HTML, names and photos may not be automatically picked up. You can still select the name and photos using our manual selector.

5. Choose the testimonial space you want to save this recommendation, whether or not you want to add it to your wall of love. Finally, click Add to complete it.

  3. Go to the recommendation section on your LinkedIn page. Highlight the text you want to select.

  4. Right-click your mouse to open the context menu dropdown. You will find Testimonial as an option. Hover over Testimonial, then select Save Text in the secondary list.

  5. It will pop up a model like the one below. We will automatically get the person's name, profile picture, and title. In rare cases, the data might be wrong or not filled in, so please double-check.

  6. Choose the testimonial space you want to save this recommendation, whether or not you want to add it to your wall of love. Finally, click Add to complete it.
