Step-by-step: add a LinkedIn widget to Ghost
- 1
Create your LinkedIn widget
Sign up for free, click New widget, choose Person or Company, and paste your LinkedIn profile or company page URL.
- 2
Customize and copy the embed code
Pick a widget (posts feed, profile card, company page, jobs, recommendations, certifications or projects), match your brand, then open the Integration tab and copy the code.
- 3
Add an HTML card
Open the post or page in the Ghost editor. On a new line, click the + button (or type /) and choose HTML from the card menu.
- 4
Paste the code and publish
Paste the embed code into the HTML card, click outside the card, then Publish or Update. Open the live post to check the widget.
Your embed code looks like this
Copy the exact code, with your widget ID, from the Integration tab in the LinkedInEmbed dashboard.

<script src="https://www.linkedinembed.com/embed.js" async></script>Tips for Ghost
- Save the card as a snippet: select it, click the snippet icon in the toolbar and give it a name. Then insert it on any post or page by typing / followed by the snippet's name.
- Use the eye icon in the HTML card toolbar to choose who sees the widget: public visitors, free members or paid members.
- Adding several widgets to one post? Paste each one's full code into its own HTML card. The script only renders each widget once, even if it appears more than once on the page.
- A profile card at the end of your posts tells readers who wrote them, and a posts feed on an About page shows what you're sharing on LinkedIn.
