    Hi, I am currently using WPAllimport to import job listings from a URL feed. The import runs every six hours. Is there a way to add a notification on the WordPress admin dashboard that indicates when new adverts have been imported / entered? I have seen some plugins that add a red notification circle above their menu entry when there is new content – is this possible for WP Job Manager?

    Hi @simstim,

    You have the option to receive alerts about new or updated entries through email, rather than directly in your WordPress Dashboard. The WP Job Manager Email Notifications add-on is a handy tool for this:

    You might be familiar with the method where new listings are marked with a red bubble along with a number indicating the count of new additions:

    However, if your goal is to display notifications directly on your WordPress admin dashboard, it may necessitate some tailored development work to make that possible.

    I hope this helps. Should you need further clarification or have any questions, please feel free to let us know.

    Hi

    Many thanks for the reply. Yes, the red bubble count of new additions is exactly what I was hoping for – am I understanding correctly that this is not currently possible for Job Manager? If so, then the email notification should also work fine. I have will have a look at the built-in feature and the plugin.
