I don't know of a setting within LinkedIn that would prevent it - but I do feel like most things you have to be logged in for? Additionally have you tried testing it in SCORM Cloud? That's an industry standard for testing SCORM content and it would help rule out your LMS as a factor.
If you're still having difficulty could you tell us more about what does display on that page when you're viewing it in your LMS?
Hope you're keeping well. We noticed that you posted a help query on here regarding embedding links from LinkedIn in your courses.
It is worth noting that this is not a SCORM issue and the usual testing of a course on SCORM cloud would be a fruitless test. LinkedIn prevent you from embedding links or materials from their website to prevent click-jacking attacks or the like. i.e. in technical terms, they implement the X-Frame-Options directive and we have seen that set to same origin in the past, which would cause your 'whitebox' description.
You will probably have to host your post on another site that permits this or simply copy/paste the text into your course itself without embedding. Of course if you need more help on this just contact the LearnUpon support team as usual and we'd be glad to help out further.

Just in case it helps here is the link I am trying to embed.

All that shows is the white area where the page should show.
I have another embedded web page later in the course which displays fine.

Thanks Caroline for popping in here and sharing that additional information about how LinkedIn won't allow the articles to be posted in such a way.
