 * Hi, i have the somevproblems with the code to add new fields in wp-job-manager
   job form. It should be very simplex. It works if used in function.php, but doesn’t
   work using code snippets. below code:
    `add_filter( ‘submit_job_form_fields’,‘
   frontend_add_salary_field’ ); function frontend_add_salary_field( $fields ) {
   $fields[‘job’][‘job_salary’] = array( ‘label’ => __( ‘Salary ($)’, ‘job_manager’),‘
   type’ => ‘text’, ‘required’ => true, ‘placeholder’ => ‘e.g. 20000’, ‘priority’
   => 7 ); return $fields; }
 * Can you help me to understand what’s the matter? Thanks
