In contact details - identities, you can add skype, facebook etc. but I really miss Linkedin,
the biggest network for professionals.

BadaBING! THANKS Brogan!From what I can tell it seems to work.
Are you able to use vanity name as well?Adding a new identity service seems to be fairly straightforward.
I don't know what form Linked In IDs take so I just created a basic file (attached) and saved it in /library/XenForo/Model/IdentityService
This will need to be updated to ensure correct checking of IDs.
I also created a phrase for use with the service: please_enter_valid_linkedin_id | Please enter a valid Linked In ID
Then I created the new service in the ACP as shown in the screenshot.

You should be able to repeat that for any other service you want to add.

Custom user fields in Contact details (since XenForo 1.1.0 released November 2011)What is identities now in XF 2 ?
Are you wanting login... or simply a field to show their linked-in ID. If the latter, that is easily done with custom field. No, by default it won't create a link (I don't believe), but cut & paste is not beyond most users ability.Anyone has any updated on this method still working in 2023 or do we have a better way now?
