@DarkCygnus You can force LinkedIn to use the latest, uncached flair by appending ?latest to the flair link.

| Jul 25, 2018 at 22:46 | comment | added | DarkCygnus | ugh.. seems that linkedin caches the image link. I just checked my link (which I placed some time ago thanks to this answer :) and I found it has not updated the rep I gained since... posting the link again gives the same result; I eventually added a different link (added the clean theme) and it updated. | |

| Jul 12, 2016 at 19:23 | comment | added | Damian Green | Not sure this works anymore. Currently you are offered a single text field asking for a url with a link to 'supported providers' | |
| Mar 30, 2016 at 22:02 | comment | added | Mateus Gondim | If you try to edit the Summary and don't see the add link button, it's probably because your summary is empty. So write "Summary", for example, hit save, and then try to edit again. The options to add media should appear. | |

| May 24, 2015 at 6:03 | comment | added | m4n0 | But the image is not getting updated as in SE flair page. What is the solution? | |

To remove the border you can add ?theme=clean or ?theme=dark or ?theme=hotdog to the end of the image URL e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/users/flair/1997103.png?theme=clean

I just checked - my flair is shown and up-to-date. Okay, here's what I would do to troubleshoot things: 1) learn which side to blame - try uploading some other, non-flair image (from both local computer and from Internet). If it loads, it means LinkedIn side is okay 2) check if i set correct URL for a flair - in your case it should be http://stackoverflow.com/users/flair/1997103.png 3) check if I can load this image to my local computer instead of LinkedIn and view it there

| Jan 27, 2014 at 20:53 | comment | added | LihO | No, sorry, I mean... it works. It really does. I just don't like the way it is displayed, but that's the fault of LinkedIn :) | |
| Jan 27, 2014 at 20:42 | comment | added | gnat | @LihO what does it mean "can work", it's just works for me for quite a while. As for the title, my understanding is, it's optional. If you believe that it's not needed, simply omit it - see step 5 in instructions quoted "Once you've added the link, you can edit the title field and description." | |
| Jan 27, 2014 at 17:14 | comment | added | LihO | It may work, IMHO it's quite ugly the way it is being displayed (with that huge border around it and necessary Title under it). | |
