Hi Mike Jolley,

I like how the ‘my jobs’ shortcode gives people the ability to edit their own posted jobs – it’s very practical! – but it’s possible it may not be needed.

Perhaps instead of modifying the job-dashboard.php template or creating a child template I could use css to hide those elements so that when there is an update there will be no need to re-create the child page in the event of changes to the parent page?

Hello Timo,

thank you for your response.

To clarify and confirm what you said, I mean email address (user) of the one who posted the custom post type – in this instance, WP Job Manager.

I was hoping to have 1 rule to notify the admin of a new post for that custom post type (WP Job Manager), then a 2nd rule to notify the user of the post (email address) when the post is approved (active).

Would that be possible?

Hi Mike Jolley,

when using the ‘my jobs’ shshortcode it gives the options to edit a submitted job – is there an option within the shortcode to disable “edit” “mark filled”, etc? I was reviewing the docs on the website, but only saw the shortcodes themselves.

Hi Mike Jolley,

you got it right! I did use the ‘my jobs’ dashboard shortcode, although I am not sure if the employer will be given the option to edit their job posting once it has been submitted.

I also installed the role plug-in you suggested (thank you); perhaps I am unclear how to use it, but I do see “manage_job_listings” under the Custom Capabilities header which is available for all users, and I don’t see anything specific related to that specific user – what am I missing?

Hi Mike Jolley,

I’ll attempt my best to clarify.

An employer would log in and post a job. When the employer is logged in, he/she would see only the jobs posted by themselves, and their current status (e.g. Pending or Active). So, if Jane Doe logs in and posts a new job she would only see that job, and not the others who have posted jobs.

Does that make more sense?

Hi Mike Jolley,

thank you. I understand the principle of assigning the role, but how would I assign an individual job/resume that has not yet been posted? I think I am missing a step, and any help would be greatly appreciated!

@moonjw,

I was able to accomplish a “force mp3” download by adding the following to the .htaccess file.

<FilesMatch "\.(mov|mp3|jpg|pdf)$">
  ForceType application/octet-stream
  Header set Content-Disposition attachment
</FilesMatch>

Hello mibuthu,

that worked – thank you!

I was wondering where I got that “minus” instead of the underline, and perhaps you are aware but in the “About” section of the plug-in in the admin section there is the following text:

years_dropdown(show-all=false|show-past=true),cats_dropdown;;reset_link under the “filterbar_items” attribute name.

Perhaps that is for something else, and I misunderstood?

Hi mibuthu,

the website is being built behind the scenes while the current one is still live; I will update this post when the site goes live if you don’t mind having a look then?

Thank You for your response!

Hi mibuthu,

I understand, and thank you for the response!

Hello mibuthu,

I was just hoping to add a button link next to the title, but I found a more appropriate place.

Thank you for your response!

Hello mibuthu,

upon researching, it seems to be a DOM browser default; it seems this could be changed with javascript/jquery, so I researched more and found this verify interesting link that I feel further customizes your already very flexible plug-in!
