Does anyone know the following within Job Manager:

-How to get the homepage jobs to not show the date published text and pull the location
-How to add a job search bar – I removed a separate plugin that was giving us a bad form and apparently there is the chance to use a default one
-Is it possible to allow candidates send a CV and register for job updates within job master. If so, how
-Is it possible to have clients send us their new vacancies on job manager. If so, how

Thanks very much.

Clare

Hi Clare!

-How to get the homepage jobs to not show the date published text and pull the location

As we’ve said to you via email, you have a custom theme on your site; as no-one has access to the PHP files for the theme, no-one can tell you how to change the code to do what you ask. Someone would need to have access to all of the theme’s PHP files to determine how it’s put together, and how to modify it in the way that you ask. If you’re uncomfortable editing or writing PHP, I suggest that you find a local developer to help you with this.

-How to add a job search bar – I removed a separate plugin that was giving us a bad form and apparently there is the chance to use a default one

If your theme does not over-ride the [jobs] shortcode, the plugin does generate a search bar, as you can see here:

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/shortcode-reference/

But if your theme is over-riding it, then again, we can’t tell you how to add it back without seeing all of your theme’s PHP files.

-Is it possible to allow candidates send a CV and register for job updates within job master. If so, how

We do have a couple of add-ons for this:
https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/job-alerts/
https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/resume-manager/
https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/applications/

Have a look at those, as they may be what you’re looking for.

-Is it possible to have clients send us their new vacancies on job manager. If so, how

What do you mean by “send”? They can fill out the Job Submission for on your site, if you have one:

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/the-job-submission-form/

Otherwise, what did you have in mind?

Thanks. This was the first time I asked about the date published and pulling the location. You told me about other points via email. You had told me that I could use the default one but did not tell me what I needed to do to get it working. I now know the shortcode that I need to look for as I don’t think it was mentioned. I am comfortable editing it – I have edited plenty to get it where it is. It is what I need to look for or where to edit that is the problem. I managed to change the typo I told you about on the mphp database so thanks for that part. It just seemed like my final queries related to JobManager and hopefully I will get there next week when I come to edit again as part time. Job submission sounds right.

Thanks again,

Clare

Did I do something wrong?

Hi Clare,

It looks like something on your site isn’t processing shortcodes. Are you using a Page Builder-type plugin on your site? Can you try one of these shortcodes to see if they work?

https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/shortcode#Built-In_and_Additional_Shortcodes

Probably the easiest to try out is the Gallery shortcode:

https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Gallery_Shortcode

You’ll need to know the IDs of some images in your media library.

If no shortcodes at all work, then this short article might be of help:

https://kb.yoast.com/kb/shortcodes-not-rendering/

Let me know how it goes!

Thank you

No page builder plugin. I did just find this http://ewrecruitment.co.uk/try/ #

I will check the rest

Something is definitely stopping your site from rendering shortcodes, then. It has to be something in your theme, so hopefully that link I send you will give you the solution.

That is what the plugin it suggested brought up

At this point, it’s not a WP Job Manager issue though, it’s still almost definitely a theme issue. I can’t help you diagnose your theme. We’d have to see what’s in template-parts/content as well, but again, I can’t help you fix your theme, sorry!

Hi there – still having problems on this. The plugin suggested by the link suggested page.php. However, that page is empty besides the functioning loop on the right hand side with latest news. So what is going on as the link suggests loop problems, and there is nothing similar to the examples it gives. Thanks

Hi Clare,

What is the problem we are trying to solve, still? Is it these shortcodes on this page?

https://ewrecruitment.co.uk/try/

This is what I see there right now:
```
[job_loop]

[job_link][job_title][/job_link] [job_field4] [job_field2]
[/job_loop]
```
Those aren’t WP Job Manager shortcodes, so, I don’t know where you’re getting them from.

if that’s not the issue, then can you describe a bit more what the problem is still? Thanks!

Those were something done by the developer who went AWOL, so absolutely no idea. The link that was given about getting to the bottom of it (https://kb.yoast.com/kb/shortcodes-not-rendering/) said to download a plugin called What the File. I used what the file on the page not showing them and it gave me page.php. The Yoast page then says there will likely be a broken loop onn that page. However, there is only one loop on there and it works (the one bringing up the news stories on the side).

There is nothing else at all on page.php to give any clues as to why not rendering.

Hi,

As I said last time, those shortcodes are not from WP Job Manager; I don’t know where they are from, so the reason they aren’t being rendered may be just because they aren’t defined in your theme or plugins as something that *should* be rendered. If you’re trying to use WP Job Manager and its shortcodes, please look at the actual shortcodes you may use, here:

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/shortcode-reference/

I am aware that they are not but the link about them not rendering is not correct as the error they say to look for is not there.

In the posts above I gave examples of what happened when I did try your shortcodes. I know what they are.

Hiya,

At this point, this has been an ongoing issue for several weeks now. I can’t help you debug your theme, and it’s clear that the theme is almost certainly the cause of the problem. If you want to be able to use WP Job Manager (or any other plugin that uses shortcodes), at this point my suggestion is to dump this theme and find another one that will suit your needs.

Thanks for the suggestion.
