Remove Apply for Job Button

Dee,

I’m unsure why you’d want to do this, but you can with a bit of custom code. You’d need to override our default template file. Here’s a general tutorial:

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/template-overrides/

The file to override in this case is:

WP-Job-Manager/templates/content-single-job_listing.php

This is what you’d want to remove:

That said, we aren’t able to actually write the code for you. You may want to look into one of these services if you need help:

Thanks!

I actually want to remove/replace the apply now button with a custom button that includes a few query args from the currently displayed job. Right now, i just added the button to the meta at the top of the job listing and used css to hide the built-in apply for job button.

So, my question is, if I were to modify the template you referenced in the previous reply, will a future plugin update overwrite my customizations?

Hi @mathewemoore ! In the future, it’s best if you start your own thread, please. ??

If you do a template over-ride, then an update won’t overwrite the customizations. If you edit the plugin files directly, then yes it will, which is why we suggest the over-rides.
