    We have an editor role on our website but on the back end they can not access the view or edit jobs page. How can we make this role have correct permission?

    Hi @waynep16

    You could use some 3rd-party plugins for adding the next capabilities:

    For managing Jobs (details here https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/get_post_type_capabilities/):

    ‘edit_jb-job’,
    ‘read_jb-job’,
    ‘delete_jb-job’,
    ‘edit_jb-jobs’,
    ‘edit_others_jb-jobs’,
    ‘publish_jb-jobs’,
    ‘read_private_jb-jobs’,
    ‘delete_jb-jobs’,
    ‘delete_private_jb-jobs’,
    ‘delete_published_jb-jobs’,
    ‘delete_others_jb-jobs’,
    ‘edit_private_jb-jobs’,
    ‘edit_published_jb-jobs’,
    ‘create_jb-jobs’

    For managing Job Types:

    ‘manage_jb-job-types’,
    ‘edit_jb-job-types’,
    ‘delete_jb-job-types’,
    ‘edit_jb-job-types’

    For managing Job Categories:

    ‘manage_jb-job-categories’,
    ‘edit_jb-job-categories’,
    ‘delete_jb-job-categories’,
    ‘edit_jb-job-categories’

    Let me know if you have other questions,
    Best Regards!

    Hi @nsinelnikov

    I’d like to open this because I have the same question. I’m the Administrator on our WP and I can access the backend Job Board just fine. I’d like my colleague with the Author role to access it as well.

    I am using User Role Editor and I added pretty much all capabilities that seem related to your plugin to the role. However the user still can’t access it. He gets “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.” message.

    Here’s the role overview in the User Role Editor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G7HOqDHdO-x5xxlYSMKnELvi9xh6Ncf3/view?usp=drivesdk

    What are we missing?

    Hi @andrejzito

    Thanks for letting us know. Please get the latest version from our GitHub repo https://github.com/ultimatemember/jobboardwp/archive/refs/heads/master.zip if you need the urgent fix on your website.

    These changes will be released soon and you will be able upgrade soon.

    Best Regards!

    Hi @nsinelnikov,

    I installed your version today and it works fine, thanks!

    What I did is I installed it, deactivated the “official” one, activated the version from you. Is this what I should have done? Can I delete the official version? What will have with the next official update, will it know to update “your” version? Right now I have 2 plugins with the same name.

    best regards,
    Andrej

    Hi @andrejzito

    Please keep the same directory name in the wp-content/plugins/ folder. It has to have a name “jobboardwp”.
    All these hotfixes you have on your website from GitHub repo will be added to the next official version release. As soon as you will see the upgrade notice you can upgrade without fear to loose these hotfixes.

    Best Regards!

    hi @nsinelnikov

    actually the one from your ZIP is under “jobboardwp-master” folder and it works fine… so I should rename it?
