Company Management — Many Listings Per Company

    For my implementation (planterjobs.com), I’ll have several organizations that will have multiple job postings. Repeating all of their company info on each posting is not very efficient.

    I’m sure this isn’t a new question, but I’d like your recommended solution for managing Companies where they only have to maintain their company information in one location.

    I see the Add-On for Company Profiles, but that doesn’t appear to address my question…or does it?

    Company info is not stored separately, its part of the submission.

    Once submitted, those company fields will be prefilled for future submissions.

    Thanks Mike, I saw that, but the meta from WP Job Manager Field Editor was not prefilled for my custom company fields. So…once again…back at WP Job Manager Field Editor (do you guys collaborate?).

    It’s such an excellent add-on for your plugin and I assumed it would work the same by default. There are two options that have to be set to auto-populate company fields on the Populate tab of the field editor:

    1. populate_enable and
    2. populate_save.

    I think this will lead to an acceptable solution as long as I can show company information on its own form. That’s on me to sort out…shouldn’t be a problem.

    For what it’s worth, I think it would be better to have a [company_profile] page that is separate from the [job_submit] page. Much easier to manage my profile in one place, but I understand the concept of being able to edit company info per position. This method will give me the best of both worlds: default info and ability to customize company info per position. Nice! That’s the direction I’m heading.

    I really appreciate how you invest so much time responding to users…thanks!
