In short

LinkedIn for professionals
On LinkedIn, authority is built by the person.
According to LinkedIn, the network has passed 1 billion members. For lawyers, doctors, consultants and agencies, it is the professional shop window: it is where clients and peers follow what each person publishes.
That is why APC Editorial publishes on each author's personal profile, not on a generic one. Each person on the team connects their own LinkedIn once, and the post goes out on the profile of whoever signs the theme or the article.
The format follows today's LinkedIn: a large image with the text and, in summaries, the article link at the end. LinkedIn no longer shows the large link card, so it is the post's own image that catches the eye in the feed. The text respects LinkedIn's 3,000-character limit: if it runs longer, it is rewritten shorter, never cut in the middle. Hashtags are a single word, the way LinkedIn recognizes them, and everything comes out in the output language you chose.
You can be on LinkedIn in 2 ways, apart or together:
| Article summary | LinkedIn plan | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A post that sums up a blog article. | Standalone posts, each with its own theme, briefing and image. |
| Where to turn it on | The Publish a LinkedIn summary too switch, in the blog plan's Editorial prompt. | The Editorial Planning LinkedIn tab. |
| Which profile | The article author's. | The theme author's. |
| Image | The post's own, made with the plan's image settings. | Always made with AI. |
| Link | The article address, at the end of the text, when it fits. | No link: the post stands on its own. |
Regulated sectors
Legal, health and finance with a closing line.
With the Jurídico (legal), Saúde (health) and Finanças (finance) profiles, the post follows those sectors' communication rules: it doesn't advise readers on their own case, promises no results, doesn't solicit clients and never invents a law. The sector comes from the plan's Main profile.
- Mandatory closing line: every post in these sectors ends with a closing line in the output language.
- Redone, never patched: if the line is missing, the text is redone up to 3 times and then only the line is asked for again.
- No line, no post: regulated text without the closing line never reaches LinkedIn, by any path, not even when a person publishes the article.
- Outside these sectors, no disclaimer: in a marketing post, the notice would only get in the way.
What the line guarantees: that it is in the post. It does not guarantee that the text is legally adequate. Review by whoever is responsible for the content is still needed.
What it does
From theme to post, in one place.
LinkedIn plans work like blog plans: themes with a briefing, settings of their own and scheduling. The difference is that each theme becomes a post.
Plans just for LinkedIn
The Editorial Planning LinkedIn tab holds plans with their own themes, briefings and settings, apart from the blog. In the project switcher, they sit under LinkedIn Campaigns.
Themes with a briefing
Generate, import or type your themes, or bring them from a blog plan with Copy from WP editorial plan. Each theme comes in with its briefing written and compared with the plan's others.
Its own image on every post
Every image is made with AI, with the model, size, logo and palette of the plan's Featured image card, and it is saved so you can see it before posting.
Many authors, many profiles
In LinkedIn profiles, + Add LinkedIn user links each WordPress author to their profile. The Author signature card says who signs the plan's posts.
You see it before it posts
The post window shows the whole image, uncropped, and the text right below, as they will go live. On an article summary, Regenerate summary and Regenerate summary + image redo whatever you want.
Right away or scheduled
With Publish, the post goes out as soon as it is ready; with Draft, it waits for you. The Scheduling card generates at the times you choose: Daily, Weekly or Monthly.
Article summary
The blog article becomes a post too.
On blog plans, the Publish a LinkedIn summary too switch, in the Editorial prompt, gives each article a post that sums up the text and ends with the link. It follows simple rules, so nothing goes out by accident:
- Only with a connected profile: if the article's author has no LinkedIn connected, nothing of the summary is generated or charged, and the article comes out as usual.
- A choice of its own: the summary has its own Publish or Draft, and the default is Draft. The article can go live while the summary waits for you.
- Together with client review: when the article goes to the client for approval, the summary travels with it, and whoever approves the review releases both.
- Only once: only the article's first publication takes the summary along. Correcting an article that is already live posts nothing new.
Every post and every summary is also kept in Word, in the Documents tab, to send to your client or file.
Replacing a post that is already live: publishing a new version deletes the old post, with its reactions and comments, and puts the new one in its place. The window warns you first, and the old post is deleted by the same profile that published it.
Step by step

In the LinkedIn app card, follow the Step-by-step guide, paste the Client ID and Client secret and click Save app.
-
Connect each author
In LinkedIn profiles, click + Add LinkedIn user, choose the author and click Connect LinkedIn. The profile signed in on that browser is the one connected.
-
Set up the plan
In the Editorial Planning LinkedIn tab, create the plan, fill in Editorial prompt, Featured image and Author signature, and add your themes.

FAQ
Questions about creating LinkedIn posts with AI.
Can I publish to LinkedIn straight from WordPress?
Yes. With APC Editorial, the post goes from WordPress to the author's LinkedIn profile: right away, with Publish, or after your review, with Publish to LinkedIn. It can come from a LinkedIn-only plan or sum up a blog article.
Does the post go to a personal profile or a company page?
On each connected author's personal profile. APC Editorial doesn't publish to company pages: the post goes out on the profile of whoever signs the theme or the article.
Do I need to create a LinkedIn app?
Today, yes, once per site, on LinkedIn Developers. The Step-by-step guide in the LinkedIn app card shows how to create the app, enable the 2 products it needs and copy the Client ID and Client secret.
Does the LinkedIn connection expire?
Yes. A LinkedIn connection lasts up to about 60 days. While it is valid, the profile shows reconnect by [date]; once it expires, every screen that depends on it says so and offers Connect LinkedIn. Renewal is always with the same person, so an author's profile is never swapped by mistake.
Why does the article link go at the end of the text?
Because LinkedIn no longer shows the large link card. The post uses a large image of its own, which catches the eye in the feed, and the article address goes at the end of the text when it fits, without cutting the text or the address.
Can I replace a post that is already published?
Yes. Publishing a new version deletes the old post, with its reactions and comments, and posts the new one in its place. The window warns you first, and the old post is deleted by the same profile that published it.
What about a post by a lawyer, doctor or financial adviser?
With the Jurídico, Saúde or Finanças Main profile, the post doesn't advise on the reader's case, promises no results, doesn't solicit clients and always ends with the sector's closing line. Without the line, it isn't posted. The line guarantees the notice is there, not that the text is legally adequate: your review is still needed.
How much does each post cost?
APC Editorial doesn't charge per post. The text uses your Anthropic key and the image, your OpenAI key, and the cost goes straight to your account with each AI. AI Cost History shows the amount for each step, and the PRO plugin costs the same however many posts you make.
