Selecting the LinkedIn Design Element will open its Settings tab.
Customization options
The LinkedIn Follow button only requires a single customizable option, and that is the Company ID.
LinkedIn suggests finding the company by contacting the LinkedIn company page administrator and asking them to navigate to the admin section of the page. The Company ID can then be extracted from the URL. For example, the LinkedIn company admin section's URL is: https://www.linkedin.com/company/1337/admin/, therefore the Company ID is 1337.
It is also possible to extract the company ID manually without contacting LinkedIn admin. Continue to this FAQ by LinkedIn help center: What is a LinkedIn Company ID, and where do I find it?
