Thanks Scott,

I got this issue resolved in the end it was being styles by Javascript.

'name' => 'search_categories'

Outputs various style elements but

'name' => 'search_region'

Does not, are these being generate by Job Manager or the theme I am using?

Thanks Mike,

This wasn’t working however I am using a theme ‘jobify’ which happens to already have a template override in place. It is this file that I needed to edit.

Seems to have done the job.

In order to customise the layout of the job results section which template file would I edit?

I’ll get this marked as resolved.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the reply keytoe.

Hi I seem to have it working with the following code:

<form method="GET" action="https://localhost/kenny_whelan/jobs/">
<p class="keywords col-lg-4">
<?php wp_dropdown_categories( array( 'taxonomy' => 'job_listing_category', 'hierarchical' => 1, 'show_option_all' => __( 'Any Category', 'wp-job-manager' ), 'name' => 'search_categories', 'orderby' => 'name', 'selected' => $selected_category ) ); ?>
</p>
<p class="location col-lg-4">
<?php wp_dropdown_categories( array( 'taxonomy' => 'job_listing_region', 'hierarchical' => 1, 'show_option_all' => __( 'Any Region', 'wp-job-manager' ), 'name' => 'search_categories','show_count'         => 2, 'orderby' => 'name', 'selected' => $selected_category ) ); ?>
</p>
<p class="buttons col-lg-4">
<input class="advanced" type="button" value="Advanced Search" ONCLICK="window.location.href='index.php?page_id=13'" />
<input class="search" type="submit"  value="Find a job" />
</p>
</form>

However why I click the submit button the results are not reflect in the job results which is odd as this was functioning correctly when I was using input fields and not drop downs.

Also in order to customise the layout of the job results section which template file would I edit.

Thanks Mike

This is what I have so far

<select name="search_location" id="search_location">
<?php foreach ( get_job_location() as $regions ) : ?>
<option value="<?php echo $regions->slug; ?>"
<?php echo $regions->name; ?></option>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</select>

Thanks I am getting there with it. I am just trying to loop through the locations to output these into a drop down also.

Do you know which template file this line of code uses so I might reference it.
<?php do_action( 'jobify_output_job_results' ); ?>

Thanks for your help Mike

This is what I currently have:

<form method="GET" action="https://localhost/my_site/jobs/">
  <?php wp_dropdown_categories( array( 'taxonomy' => 'job_listing_category', 'hierarchical' => 1, 'show_option_all' => __( 'Any category', 'wp-job-manager' ), 'name' => 'search_categories', 'orderby' => 'name', 'selected' => $selected_category ) ); ?>
  <input type="text" placeholder="Location" onfocus="this.placeholder = ''" onblur="this.placeholder = 'Location'" id="search_location" name="search_location" />
  <input class="advanced" type="button" value="Advanced Search" ONCLICK="window.location.href='index.php?page_id=13'" />
  <input class="search" type="submit"  value="Find a job" />
</form>

Do you know what the function to get job categories might look like?

Ok thanks Jeff.

I found my answer in the following post:

I am having this same issue however all of my data is correct in the settings menu. When I attempt to test I get:

[fgj2wp] Couldn’t connect to the Joomla database. Please check your parameters. And be sure the WordPress server can access the Joomla database.
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2003] Can’t connect to MySQL server on ‘internal-db.s156243.gridserver.com’ (61)
