Hi Mike, please can you attach a screenshot of the screen where you expect to 
see the dashlet listed but you do not? Is this a user dashboard or a site 
dashboard?

This dashlet along with the yammer and twitter timeline dashlets show up fine 
in the Customize Admin dashboard for the main share site, but DO NOT show up in 
the Customize Site Dashboard page in the included sample site, or in a newly 
created site.

Is there something I have to do to enable these in the site dashboard?

Hi Kevin, since each user must connect the LinkedIn dashlet to their own 
account in order to view content, they will each see a different view. The 
access tokens that granted as part of the connection process are stored 
per-user and for security reasons cannot be shared between users.

I am not sure it would make sense to place it on a site dashboard since it 
would show a different view for each user. Therefore I deliberately made it a 
user-dashlet only (i.e. it cannot be placed on site dashboards).

I hope that helps to clarify.

Hi Will,

That's exactly what I want! Each site user to be able to personalize the
info he sees.

In my case the site users never even see the main share site. They need to
be able to set up and see their LinkedIn or Yammer stuff in the site user's
dashboard.

Does that make sense? Is it possible?

Thanks for all the great dashlets!

Kevin

Thanks Kevin. Can you not use the LinkedIn dashlet on a user dashboard to 
achieve that, though? User dashboards are intended to be personalised by users 
but the site dashboards generally should present the same view (which the 
LinkedIn dashlet would not).

Re-reading the issue description, another possible cause of problems is the 
share-oauth.jar file being placed in shared/lib rather than in WEB-INF/lib 
inside the alfresco and share webapps.

I have fixed the documentation, which was actually incorrect on this point, but 
thought it was worth highlighting this on the ticket for anyone who was 
confused by the original docs.

LinkedIn dashlet is not intended to be shown on site dashboards, only user 
dashboards. Won't Fix.
