Prerequisites

  • I'm using the latest version of Docusaurus.
  • I have tried the npm run clear or yarn clear command.

  • I have tried creating a repro with https://new.docusaurus.io.
  • I have read the console error message carefully (if applicable).

Description

When creating an authors.yml file for my company, LinkedIn social returns a 404 (or a random personne we can see in the given demo) because it returns a /in/{name} link instead of a /company/{name} link as we can see here https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus/blob/5215a33e576f5e027736e4e740260ef470a4de8c/packages/docusaurus-plugin-content-blog/src/authorsSocials.ts#L42

Reproducible demo

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-2tbpje8f?file=blog%2Fauthors.yml

Steps to reproduce

Just create a blog with an author with a company LinkedIn profile

Expected behavior

Having the correct link.

Proposal: add another social tag for LinkedIn company linkedin_company

Actual behavior

Only return link for people
