4. Click on "Cookies", then on "https://www.linkedin.com/"
5. Find a cookie with the name "li_at". Double click on the value and copy it.
Google Chrome:
FireFox:
6. Paste this value to the "Session ID (li_at)" field in the plugin.
7. Save Settings, try to post.
You are done setting your SNAP Wordpress plugin.
[VERY Important] Please DO NOT logout from LinkedIn in the browser where you got the session. You can close the browser, but don't click "Logout" button. Logout will destroy the session and autoposting will stop working. You will need to get a new session ID if you logout.
If you need to set several different accounts, you can open an "Incognito" window in your browser, login, get a session ID and close the window. Then you can open another "Incognito" window for the next account. Just don't ever click "logout" button.
