    Hi Mike,

    Is there a way to make the existing wp job alerts accessible to the all public ppl without the need to register? It could behave like subscribing to a newsletter. The job alert button on job search page is not easy to find by first time user. I just want to make it easy to get everywhere in our site.

    Registration is required because users need to be able to edit and disable alerts.

    Yes, I know the registration gives the user flexibility to edit and disable which is good. If the unregistered visitors could also receive job alerts based on their job search, that will be fantastic. I’ve done some research about big job search sites, and they are all doing job alerts by email subscription. I think it is a trend and a good feature if you can think about in the future. Thanks for your awesome work.

    I’ve logged it on the issue tracker for future consideration. Not sure how to do it yet ??

    Thanks here, : ). It should be similar to what you have done. What is different is email serves as the “primary key” to each job alert post type. Whenever a job seeker searched a job based on their criteria, there always has a email textbox, a frequency select box, and create job alert button. That’s all. The create job alert button will trigger the storing of current search criteria. I’m not sure how you created this plugin, but it should be similar. The demand is that not every user has the patience to sign up. However, the target jobs will bring them.
