Steps to do this are:

  1. Register your site as a LinkedIn App.
    1. Note your Client ID and secret to put in your Tiki prefs.
    2. Set default permissions to r_basicprofile and r_emailaddress
    3. Set the authorized redirect url to: http://yourtikisite.com/tiki-socialnetworks_linkedin.php
  1. Set your Tiki preferences for LinkedIn at /tiki-admin.php?page=socialnetworks
    1. Set your Client ID and Secret from Step 1.
    2. Check both login and auto-create user using LinkedIn

This will allow users to Log In using LinkedIn.
