Show Categorie in single job page

hello and good day dear imborx

first of all: many thanks for using wp-jobmanager – a warm wellcome to you in the community of wp-job-manager!

Many thanks stepping up with your question: i just installed the wp-job-manager to a new site – so i also wonder why i do not see the according category field.

i have had a quick view onto the demo-page which is set up by the developers and the support team of the developers of wp-job-manager: see here
https://demo.wpjobmanager.com/jobs/

well – in fact i do not see the categories over there. Do you.

but i am pretty sure that this is only a little thing that has to do with the configuration: i will try to figure it out later the day – and if i will find a solution i will come back ans share it with you (and the community)

perhaps other user will step up the plate and come back with a solution.

meanwhile – have a great day.
regards

Hi @say_hello,

I really appreciate your help. If you find a solution, you will be my hero!

I checked this tutorial: https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-adding-a-salary-field-for-jobs/ which can help us, so I tried to use this code:

add_action( 'single_job_listing_meta_end', 'display_job_category_data' );

Bud didn’t worked for me… the meta key should be “_job_category” for this field.

Best regards.

could you try this, it worked for me.

<?php categorias_en_listing(); ?></li>

Kind regards.

add this code to your funcion.php and use the one that i send before to display category.

function dm_display_wpjm_single_categories () {
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( get_the_ID(), 'job_listing_category' );
    if ( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ){
		echo '';
	}else { 
			echo ' Whatever you want';
		}
        foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
            echo ' ' . $term->name . ' ';
        }  
        echo '';
	}

add_shortcode('list_categories_single', 'dm_display_wpjm_single_categories');
add_theme_support( 'job-manager-templates' );

function categorias_en_listing () {
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( get_the_ID(), 'job_listing_category' );
    if ( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ){
		echo '';
	}else { 
		echo ' whatever you want ';
	}
        foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
            echo '' . '<a href="' . esc_url( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . $term->name . '</a>';
        }
        echo '';
    }
add_shortcode('list_categories_single', 'categorias_en_listing');
add_theme_support( 'job-manager-templates' );

@imborx

you have to insert this lines into the content-sigle-job_listing-meta.php and upload the file into

yourtheme/job_manager/content-single-job_listing-meta.php.

<li class="job-category <?php echo get_the_job_category() ? sanitize_title( get_the_job_category()->slug ) : ''; ?>"><?php the_job_category(); ?></li>

Hi,

To save space, categories are not output in the job listings page. You’d need to override the content-job_listing.php template file to add the categories there:
https://wpjobmanager.com/document/template-overrides/

Best,
Cena

The WP Job Manager Field Editor can also help with this–it is an extremely useful plugin.
