Application Form Not Appearing

Hi there and sorry for the delay as I have been on annual leave.

The application form is rendered on the_content() using the_content filter in WordPress. You can see this here:

https://github.com/highrisedigital/wpbroadbean/blob/master/inc/applications/application-form.php#L110

Therefore if your theme is outputting the content then it should work. The only thing I can think is that your theme is removing the_content filters somehow?

Which theme are you using?

Hi Mark

We are currently using ‘The7’, I did a search through the theme files but nothing is jumping out at me as to affect this. I will separately submit a support request to the theme developer.

Thanks,
Colin.

Hi Mark

I have been speaking with the theme developer and;

Short answer: Putting some content in the excerpt field gets the form visible on the page

Detailed answer: https://github.com/highrisedigital/wpbroadbean/blob/master/inc/functions.php#L416 the plugins is using include_once to render the form

The theme uses get_excepts function to generate open graph descriptions, this function calls the_content filter, so the view already called once and return empty results when page content generated, as workaround, I can fill in the excerpts so the the_content will be called only once.

As the jobs are filled dynamically through the feed, I am not sure how to circumvent this.

I am not entirely sure that I need to use include_once there. I think it could be include which should fix the issue you have.

Therefore is there anyway you can change that code on your site so that I can test it please?

Hi Mark,

That solved the issue I was having. Thanks for your help.

Excellent. This fix is now included in version 3.0.1 and therefore if you update to that it should also correct the issue.
