Hey guys,

First of all, i’m quite surprised to see this post marked as resolved. As, until now, its not!
Another surprise for me is that the plugin authors, or happiness engineers of the plugin could not provide me with the following simple shortcode:
[jobs categories=”belleza”, “aventura”, “bienestar”, “gastronomia”]

So for those looking to do the same as I wanted. Here you have the solution. Provided to you not by Brandon or Adam or me.. but David Gabay! A listable forum member!

The solution for those still needing it:

Install “Say What” — https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/say-what/
Visit “Tools > Text Changes”
Create a new Text change with the following settings:
– Original String: All Regions
– Domain: wp-job-manager-locations
– Replacement String: Your text!

Hey guys,

I have used Loco Translate, Localization Translation and So What? to try to translate ‘ All Regions’. And it does translate for a second but then changes back into ‘All regions’. Looks like you guys are overriding it. How do I prevent this from happening!

And, why havent you responded for over three months to this question.

Hey brandon,

I have now done it by job types. This works like a charm.
I have added two types of job types ‘Companies’ and ‘Giftboxes’.
Now I have the following:
[jobs selected_job_types=”companies”]

And it is showing up fine.
Im gonna ask the guys from Listable to PLEASE not remove the filter for ‘types’ (as they said they would in future updates)

Thank you soo much for all your help!
Really! Appreciate it!

Hey brandon,

Thanks for your quick replies.
What this does is it removes the categories filter completely. Which is not really what I intended to have.

But, what is interesting is that it is now showing all categories. It is completely disregarding the ‘categories=”bienestar,belleza,gastronomia”‘ part of the shortcode.

So, unfortunately, this is not it either.
What do we try next?

Hey Brandon,

Nope, still only the first one showing up in the listing results. I changed around belleza and aventura, and it does change but only the first in the list gives results. So now I tried:
[jobs categories=bienestar,belleza,gastronomia]
[jobs categories=bienestar, belleza, gastronomia]
[jobs categories=”bienestar,belleza,gastronomia”]
[jobs categories=”bienestar, belleza, gastronomia”]

Also, it automatically selects one of the ‘categories’ in the drop down options in the list of filters.

Now we are trying to define all the categories it should show. Alternatively, is there no way to hide a category from the listings shown?

Would love to hear back from you.

Regards, Robert

Brandon,

Good that it would work! However, my question is ‘ how to make this work’ ?
How do you hide certain categories from the listing page?

I have tried to ‘show’ only certain categories. By adding the following:
[jobs categories=”belleza, aventura, bienestar, gastronomia”] or
[jobs categories=belleza, aventura, bienestar, gastronomia]
But then only belleza shows up in the results. But I need all of these to show up.

Or, alternatively, is there a way of ‘hiding’ certain categories? With a custom hide categories shortcode?

Would love to hear back from you!

Regards,
Robert

Hey Brandon,

Nice job you have, and your reply already makes me happy. Its working!

So, first off, the job types is completely disregarded in Listable. In following updates they will remove this filter completely I have understood. Currently its hidden.

But, the good news is, the product is not in multiple categories. I can put the giftboxes, giftcards and giftnotes all in one category and hide this from the regular listings page. Ill make another page with (listings -nomap – and have their repspective keywords filled in on all links).

Would this make it work?
Regards,
Robert

Hey Adam,

Okay, Im gonna try be super clear with you. In my case I have 4 different kind of ‘listings’. 1) the listings of the companies (which offer giftcards on our website); this is fine and needs no alterartions (eg: https://www.bonoz.co/listings/viva-spa/)

However, when a customer wants to checkout they can add a 2. giftcard, 3.giftbox, and a 4.gift-note, of their choice. These are all entered as listings (just without adress, openingtimes, or anything. These (2,3,4) I present on a page without map.

These (2,3,4) I want to hide in the regular listings. Only when people visit the specific link for them (eg: https://www.bonoz.co/listings-no-map/?search_keywords=caja&submit=) they find them (because the keyword is filled in on the link).

The problem is, now the 2,3,4 also show up in the regular listings page when you look for all listings. (eg: https://www.bonoz.co/listings/)

I hope im clear. And I hope you can help!

Regards,
Robert

Hey Lisa,

Unfortunately that did not do the trick for me. Still showing up just the category with Belleza.

Any other idea’s?
Thank you so much for replying though!
