Just so you’re aware – on the “pop-up” login form on the “choose roles” section you have misspelled “candidate” – you forgot the “n” and is currently “cadidate”. Can you please change this?
Thank you.
Hi
sorry about that, I’ll try to update it but you can quickly fix it by editing wp-content/themes/workscout/inc/wp-job-manager.php
the ‘Cadidate’ typo is in line 832
Hello plugins pay listing,on the preview space, before payment is it possible to add upsell options thank you in advance
Hi
There’s no build in option for that, it would require custom modification
looking to purchase. But Will I be able to include a calendar view for booking in the dashboards and on each job posts to show both candidate availability and employer dates opening? I’m including a freelancing/part-time jobs which shows calendar dates the job is needed. Thanks!
Hi
I’m afraid there’s no such functionality in the theme.
Hi, I found it extremely useful that in WorkScout Woo settings I can hide several of traditional WooCommerce My Account menu points, like Downloads. Two quick questions:
1) Is it possible to change the visibility of that menu items based on the role of a user? For example, ‘Orders’ is relevant for Employers, but not Candidates
2) Is it possible instead to add custom menu items? I would like that the My Account menu for candidates has buttons to their Job Alerts and their bookmarked jobs.
Thank you
Hi
ad1. You can hide that Orders page from the WooCommerce part of menu, and add a link to that page just to regular dashboard menu for Employers
ad2. The dashboard menu is actually two menus, the bottom one is WooCommerce menu, and above you can assign regular menu created in Appearance -> Menus -> Manage Location for each user role separately, so that way you can add any custom link there
http://www.docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/user-dashboard-navigation/Hello, is it possible to add a new filter to the job search, based on the experience required for the job, the same way you can currently filter jobs by a salary?
Hi, yes but it requires custom modification, you can check how the current filters are made in workscout/inc/wp-job-manager.php and duplicate the code to create your own
Hello, I have followed your advice to put an additional apply button at the bottom of a listing:
ad1. put that code https://gist.github.com/purethemes/65601f8614a2622465b5a905f0378212 after line 116 in single-job_listing.php
Unfortunately when I have done this the apply button appears at the top of the listing.
See here: https://i4recruitment.com/job/data-analyst-scientist/ Is it possible to keep this one at the top but replace the Full Time & New boxes and also have one at the bottom of the listing?
Thank you, Adam
Well it’s just a matter where to put that code in this file, you can simply check the source and try different places. If you want to remove the ‘new and job type’ labels, remove lines 48-56 (after the line with the_title) and put this code there instead.
Don’t be afraid to experiment with that, you can always get the original file from theme
Hello and thank you for getting back to me. Just followed your instructions but the styling is pretty poor here with an arrow overlapping.
https://i4recruitment.com/job/data-analyst-scientist/ Also could you please confirm the line I need to add this to in order for it to be just below the job description?Also I am wanting to hide the ‘X’ (Close button) in the apply for job pop up, is there a code snippet for this I could use?
Thank you, Adam
Put it after line 133 then ‘do_action( ‘single_job_listing_end’ );’
why do you want to remove close button? How will people close the box then?:)
What do you mean ‘do_action( ‘single_job_listing_end’ );’
Do I need to put this on the line after that code snippet?
You designed the theme, you should know that it’s possible to close the popup without the need for the “X”. You can just click away from the pop up. Please tell me how to hide as it’s poorly designed and way too prominent.
Thank you.
do_action( ‘single_job_listing_end’ );
put the ‘apply’ code after that line if you want ot have it after the content (which doesn’t make much sense as it’s next to the content within the sidebar at the same level)
to hide the button add to Additional CSS
button.mfp-close {
display: none;
}
but it’s not really user friendly and I don’t recommend it.
For any more customisation request please hire a developer as this is not exactly in theme support scope. Thank you for understanding
Thank you, I did try removing the code for the job type and the “New” icons but it adjusting the formatting for most of the page. Is there a way to hide these bits without affecting any other part of the page?
Thank you.
Hello again, you also emailed me last week saying the divert from registration was fixed but this isn’t the case. Could you please look into this?
Thank you.
Hi
what you mean by ‘adjusting the formatting for most of the page.’? It’s not adjusting anything, maybe you’ve removed too much? I didn’t have a chance yet to work on that registration redirection, I’ll try to do it asap
Hello, I can send a screenshot if you wish? By following your exact instructions the title bar becomes removed entirely, the sidebar is moved and all of the text is pushed up heavily.
Please try for yourself by deleting lines 48-56. 
If you could ensure the redirect is fixed asap that would be massively appreciated. I thought it was fixed prior to the weekend and have campaigns waiting to go out that wouldn’t return results if the registration doesn’t take them back to where they were.
Thanks again. Adam
Also the registration page now goes to the Wordpress login/registration page. This cannot happen. Everything needs to be visible on the front end as it was previously. I look forward to everything working as it should!
Hi, I replied to your email
Hi I am enabling my own API code and am getting error for it saying
You have exceeded your request quota for this API.
and
Google Maps API warning: RetiredVersion.
Any ideas what the issue is? I only just changed the API.
Thanks.
I have Maps JavaScript API currently is that what i need?
Maps API is paid now, but you get 200$ free credit each month which is enough for any average website. You need JavaScript API, Places API, Geocoding API. If you have a message ‘You have exceeded your request quota for this API.’ it means you’re exceeded the free version, you can check it in your Google Dev console
Hi Thanks for that,
How do I inculde all the API’s? I can only see one box for them.
Thanks.
Oh I see they are all linked to one project.
One other question does it only take one load to exceed the free version? how do I get free credit each month?
Is it possible to just use the api that does the auto suggestion for searching your region?
Thanks.
JavaScript API, Places API are needed for searching, Geocoding is needed for making your properties geocoded on the map. So there’s not much to limit there. You’ll have full info about your project and API usage/limits in the Console https://console.developers.google.com/
hello,
is it possible to link the ‘apply’ button to an external link? thanks
Hi
Yes it is
Hi, I have gone into the settings to change the email address in there but no notification has come through. I am seeing this in the dashboard but nothing has arrived in my inbox: There is a pending change of the admin email to adam.*@*.com
Hi
admin email change requires verification since WordPress 4.9 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/10/13/account-security-improvements-in-wordpress-4-9/ (it’s a WP thing, nothing related to the theme)
If you have’t received the email, ask your hosting provider what’s going as emails not being sent is in 99% cases a server issue. Do you receive any other emails from your site? Like from contact form etc?
Thank you for the quick response. We’re on the case with our hosting! Fingers crossed!
I have also done a search on here for registration issues and followed instructions regarding Settings > All users can register etc but no registration button is appearing. Could you assist?
There’s no other way, only this option controls it. I’d need to have access to your site to check it, so please contact me via Support Tab
hello
how do we add more fields to the Job Overview section such as salary / hourly rate /and other custom fields?
in the dummy jobs there is salary info but it. does not appear in the edit job anywhere
thanks
Hi
Make sure it’s enabled in Job Listings -> Settings
It is enabled. But on the Edit Job page there is nowhere to enter or edit this Job Overview fields
If it’s enabled it has to be here – https://www.dropbox.com/s/ve987m04bmji3sv/Screenshot%202018-08-01%2011.57.04.png?dl=0 Salary Min and Salary Max
Can the names of EMPLOYER and CANDIDATE be changed?
Yes everything can be translated/renamed
Hi, I have a couple of questions before deciding to purchase.
1. Is there a shortcode for a simple search form without the dark background and other bits?
2. Can a category select field be added to the above search?
3. Is there a shortcode to list, for example, 5 latest jobs?
4. Is there a shortcode to display the total amount of jobs on the site?
Many thanks for your help. Danny
Hi Danny
ad1. Not really
ad2. Yes it’s an option
ad3. Yes, it’s used on the homepage
ad4. No shortcode, but it can be easily added as function for that is already used on the home page
Thanks for the reply. I take it the form functionality can be copied from an existing template and added to a custom template or functions.php to create a custom shortcode?
Do you have a simple form shortcode in the pipeline at all?
Yes it can be easily added, I’ll add it for next update
Brilliant. Thanks for your help.
Hi,
I have explored theme and it’s documentation, also have read most of comments and after all I have following additional requirements :- Need some extra fields in candidate’s and employer’s registration forms. Is there any possibility for gravityforms or any other wordpress form builder plugin integration for registration form
- Need to modify existing registration form’s fields, type and labels/placeholders
- Need to add one more candidate type account (special candidate)
- Need to add one more employer type (special candidate’s job provider)
- Need to add one manager account to add employers and candidates as well as add resumes for candidates
- Need full access for Administrator to view employer’s & candidate’s dashboards and perform actions on behalf of respective users according to their particular role.
- Display Special candidate’s job via short code or widget
Best Regards ! Syed Umair Ahmed
Hi
almost all those things will require custom modification of a theme, but those are quite big tasks and we don’t have free resources now to provide such a service
Hello,
I am planning on buying this theme, I only have a question: does the theme manages pricing for employers/users who wish to post job vacancies on the site or is it solely for the administrator account of the site?
Thanks!
Hi
I’m not sure I understand the question. Admin can create the products (and prices of course) that allow users to submit job/resume (it requires additional plugins that are not included in theme) if they buy it. It works using this plugin https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/wc-paid-listings/
Hi there, could I please ask a couple of pre-sale questions:
Is it possible to have:1. Some lines of text/blurb on the jobs listings page? 2. Featured jobs? What do these look like? 3. No image/company logo with the job listings? 4. When the job was posted on job listing? / and to filter this?
Many thanks, Spencer
Hi Spencer
ad1. Could you explain it please?
ad2. The yellow background jobs are featured, you can see them on demo https://workscout.in/ ad3. Sure
ad4. Yes and no
I deleted all of the demo pages I didn’t use but now I need one of those I deleted (candidate resume page). What would be the easiest way to restore/import it back?
They still might be in Trash if you go to Pages menu in your Dashboard, there’s a tab called Trash. Or you can create it again, this is regular page with just a “[resumes show_pagination=”true”]” in a content
The site was migrated to a new domain so I believe it didn’t keep the pages in trash. I need the actual resume layout page.
So just create a new static page and as content put ‘[resumes show_pagination=”true”]’ and in Resumes -> Settings -> Pages set this page as your Browse candidates page
Hello,
I am looking for a solution to receive CV’s in my company and be able to manage them. So I think your theme could work. Are the following requirements in your theme:
1. The candidates will write their resume with custom tags (their abilities) so my company will be able to find the right candidate when it is needed. Also the candidates will be able to send their CV in pdf format.
2. The candidates will choose to send their resume for a work or for an internship.
3. There will be only one company. The Company will post internships and jobs from time to time and the candidates will receive an automatic email to know about them.
4. I do not want that other companys can register in the site. Also no payments for anything. Is it possible to disable these things?
5. Can I ask for the spanish translated po files in your support? Or should I translate the complete theme?
6. Can the candidates include their social profiles like twitter, instagram, Pinterest, Linkedin…?
Thank you for your answers. Best regards from Spain.
Hi
You can disable registration and payments. You’d have to translate theme by yourself as we don’t have full Spanish translation.
For resumes you need this add-on https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/resume-manager/
You can add fields for twitter/instagram etc
Hi there, the markers in the maps are black. is there any way to change it? I tried through the appearance – customize – maps… but regardless of what color i set there, it doesnt change the marker colors
There’s option for that in Customize -> Maps -> Marker color
Please can you advise… As shown in the above link, It still shows black
Hi
I’ve tried it on our test site and it works, maybe you have some cache plugin? I’d need to have access to your wp-admin to check what’s wrong, so if possible, please send it via Support Tab
Hello, it is possible to change the background color of the carousel. and, or changed the color of the text, thank you in advance.
Yes but it has to be done via CSS
thank you very much, but can you tell me a way, and at what place of the css change that, or a way to do it
It’s very easy to use devtools in Chrome (or Firebug in Firefox) to edit such elements with basic CSS, here’s a quick tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcFnnxfA70g
you’ll learn how to find the element you want to change and how to change the CSS in the browser, you can than just copy that edited CSS and past to Customize -> Additional CSS section in WordPress to apply it to your page.
Technically yes but all elements in theme are built for Visual Composer, so they won’t work with divi
thank you
