How does the plugin handle a user already logged in at the identity provider's site?

If I am logged in to LinkedIn in another browser tab, I am not prompted to authenticate with LinkedIn via WordPress. Is this scenario explicitly handled by the plugin? If so, where is this in the code?

That's the benefit of social login, which skips as many user-prompts as possible in a secure manner. Quick on-boarding. The first time you try to authenticate with LinkedIn, it should prompt you with a grant permissions screen which you tell it OK. Same for all users. After that, LinkedIn will either prompt you to login and then redirect to your WordPress site with the LinkedIn user identity, or if you're already logged into LinkedIn it just redirects to your WordPress site with the LinkedIn user identity, skipping the LinkedIn login screen. Hope that helps.
