Thanks for the reference posts- I will have to revisit this – I just verified it’s working as you stated. The workaround for now is to check – Show this field in the Admin Job List? As this accurately reflects the status from the DB, will have to look into this more to find out why it’s not being displayed correctly on the Jobs Edit Job screen/display.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Spam through Job ManagerRight off the start I can tell one of you issues is quite possibly due to your outdated version of WP Core, unless that’s a typo ? Current version is 4.4.1 that fixes many bugs ads enhancements and SECURITY FIXES, for which your current site running 3.6 is left wide open too from many other known and unknown exploits, that could be the actual cause of your SPAM.
If your getting spam, which by the way you don’t post a link to the site so I cant help research this claim. If you posted it here why don’t you post a link to this post ? I have never observed any complaints of Spam being caused by this plugin. You sir would be the first. JM has close to 20K active installs and this is not a problem with this plugin.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Short codes not workingThe shortcodes for job manger ONLY work within the structure of the JM admin area specifically the Display Settings, Job Template areas.
That code is them implemented within the default “Jobs” page created by Job manger at set-up.
You can modify the Name of that page to anything you want and then reset/save your permalink but you can’t post anything within that page as it’s used by JM.
Your Jobs list(s) are derived from your Jobs. So you have to create Jobs to be able to build a list. You then control the display of the list (look, styling) from the 2 Template areas (Individual Job Template & Job List Template) You can’t have a Job List w/o first creating Jobs.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Is there a way to edit the job ID?No the ID’s are added into an array and each new job gets a new ID entry into the array for the DB table. Unless you want to delve into the Options Table ofthe DB (not recommended).
If you have hard link you might try to set a 301 redirect using the id of the job you deleted and replace with the new job id.

In reply to: [Job Manager] length="n"The size of the label is determined as much by your specific theme css as it is JM.
If you need a Label to be a specific width you will have to use a Dev tool like Firefox “Firebug” to determine the setting you need.
The base styling is derived from “display.css”
job-manager/css/disaply.css
What many users do that want specific styling changes is copy that css to your themes, child theme “style.css” and make your changes there.
If your not familiar with Firebug then I would suggest you checkout another tool that works very well for Job manager styling. Additional information can be found on our recommended plugins page.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Changing the H1 on the Job Application FormThat’s derived from the “Post Title” and is NOT editable unless you go into the code base and then it will modify every job application you post with this Title preceded by the Name “Title” of the actual Job post. Not to mention that when we update the plugin it will overwrite what ever you changed it too. Huge SEO implications and not something we want to do.
If this is really important you may want to just suppress the Title on those pages from being displayed.
The place to change the naming is on the Job Title itself. That way when your application page is displayed it will be shown as “Job Application: Mentor”
What you need to do is create a Job with the “Title” of “Mentor” and publish it then you will see this. If you have more than one type of Mentor Job but the title to all of them is Mentor – then add and sort by Categories.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Emails not being sentThis issue has been discussed on numerous occasions within the threads.
99.99% of the time it’s a hosting issue or configuration issue.
Please reference these threads. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/emails-not-generating-after-application-submission
If this is your first time using JM – I would highly suggest you start out with a very simple FORM – Name, Email, Address maybe 6 to 10 items to test your email with first.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Email Subject line – Job TitleOK – so you can with a bit of work-around create the Subject Line your looking for.
1. Create a “Text” Field in App. Form Settings *Must be Text Input – Label it something like “Position Applying for?” – you can also make this Mandatory – Save/Update Application Form.
2. Admin. Settings / Application Email Settings / Subject
Select the Field You Created from Step 1. “Position Applying for?” – Save/Update Email Settings.3. Test it – You should be good to go. Screen Shots below for your use if your a visual kind of person like me 🙂

If you find this helpful – a Review would be much appreciated.
That’s fairly easy to check for. Activate a WP default theme like Twenty Fourteen and see if the problem goes away? If it does then you know it’s the theme.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Multisite SupportYou only listed one site and from the permalink (jobs-2) indicates that you may have a DB issue. If you migrated servers / hosting while using JM it can create all kinds of havoc and this is indicative of a 2nd install attempt so any previous Jobs/Apps and DB records would be listed under the first install (Jobs)and that may be why your not seeing anything.
This can also happen if you were running an older version of JM and then upgraded and moved the install.
I would suggest taking a look at the write up we prepared for this.

In reply to: [Job Manager] Checkboxes not working for custom job fieldsYour comments do not pertain to any bug in the code – the way the plugin works is the way it works. It was coded back around WP 2.9 and the Core of WP has changed. The plugin core needs a complete re-rewrite. Absent the time, money and support from others it’s taking sometime. We do provide updates to keep the plugin active and useful.
After a strong coffee and re-reading your comments I think you are on to something.
I would welcome any assistance in helping to make this work better for others.
If you would like to share your work-around for the time being that would be most welcome too.Thanks
