### 2. How do I restrict auto publish to certain categories ?

Yes, you can specify the categories which need to be auto published from settings
page.

### 3. Why do I have to create applications in LinkedIn ?

not shared with any message like “shared via xxx”

You may use post title, content, excerpt, permalink, blog title, user nicename, 
post id and post publish date for auto publishing.
