# Back Button?

 * On our job board, if a person clicks on a job instance, there is no BACK button
   to take them back to the job list. While it is easy enough to click the BACK 
   button in the browser, we get multiple complaints from users that expect a back
   button to be on this page. I checked the Settings and I don’t see an option to
   add a BACK button. Is there an easy way to achieve this I have overlooked?

 * add this to the content-single-job-job_listing.php
 * `<div><p><button onclick="history.go(-1);">Back</button></p></div>`
 * You need to find out where you want to plcae the button, and maybe some CSS to
   make it fit to your design

 * [@braehler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/braehler/) — this is super helpful!
   Thanks so much for sharing this.
 * Where did you find it best to add in your content-single-job-job_listing.php 
   template?
 * Did you put it between the
 * `<div class="single_job_listing">`
 * …and the…
 * `<?php if ( get_option( 'job_manager_hide_expired_content', 1 ) && 'expired' 
   === $post->post_status ) : ?>`
 * lines?

 * Perfect – worked like a champ – thanks. However, I’m assuming if this plugin/
   php page gets updated at some point in the future my change may be overwritten.
   I’ll keep this handy in case that occurs.

    Depends where you want
   to have it. One option is to put it into line 42 (original template) Just try
   where it fits for you 😉

 * Just keepp your template upgrade safe, uploading the template to this direction
   of your server:
    your_child_theme/job_manager/content-single-job_listing.php
