Good morning,
I’m having issues with jobs showing up for nearby searches. For example Dereham is 15 miles max from Norwich. I would like people searching for jobs in Dereham to see jobs in Norwich.
Alternatively if we are unable to do this I would like all jobs showing rather than nothing.
Thank you, Adam
Hi Adam
we do have radius based search, but it requires properly configured API keys for Google Maps http://www.docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/getting-an-api-key/make sure the API key from Job Listing Settings is not restricted in any way
Hello and thank you for the quick response. Problem now solved. 
Just another quick one please. After activating the map in the jobs page I’m not seeing any pins. How do I resolve this?
Thanks again.
Your listings are not geocoded if you had wrongly configured the API key before, you need to re-save them now to geocode again
Thank you, will it be as simple as hitting update or do they all need additional info adding or rewriting as new posts?
Thank you.
Just hit update
Thank you. I’m also having issues with the pins showing how many jobs there are in a particular location. Have a look here: https://i4recruitment.com/browse-jobs/
As you can see the pins only display how many locations there are rather than the number of jobs. When zoomed out Norwich is showing as five on the pin. When you get close and click on one of the separate pins you can see more than five jobs in there.
Please let me know a fix so our visitors can see the amount of jobs in a particular location.
Also when I click on a marker the X to close does not work.
Hi
you have currently option to use clusters disabled, it’s in Map settings in Customize. If the markers are exactly on the same spot they got stacked and you only can click the one on top. We’ll be releasing soon update for this with https://github.com/jawj/OverlappingMarkerSpiderfier
But you have the map that shows all jobs so in that case if there are more than one job on exact one location it wont’ show the number on the marker, the number is only for clusters
And I don’t see any problem with closing button, they seem to close fine for me. What browser are you using?
Yep, I have disabled clusters because it’s quite deceiving. It makes the map look as though there are only that number of jobs within that particular region.
I understand that they are stacked, however it would be nice for our users to know how many jobs are within that stack prior to clicking as opposed to having to click to find out.
Will the update you’re releasing include figures for actual jobs on the markers rather than just numbers for clusters?
The browser I’m using is Chrome. As mentioned with some of the markers the X just isn’t working nor does it let me click another marker to move from the current one. Please note this isn’t happening with all of them.
Hey, how to edit title of button in Resume Spotlight ” Contact Candidate” to “Contact Expert” ?

HI, I have a few thousand jobs on my site and want to create an RSS feed. I know WP generates one here: http://exampledomain.com?feed=job_feed&job_types=freelance%2Cfull-time%2Cinternship%2Cpart-time%2Ctemporary&search_location&job_categories&search_keywords but it is only generating a feed for a few jobs. Any reason or solution to this? I need a feed with all my jobs so I can submit it to some aggregator websites.
Thanks
Hi
by default it shows 10 latest items from the feed, that’s a WordPress setting.
Try Dashboard -> Settings -> Reading -> Syndication feeds show the most recent XX items – try to put there the number of you jobs but I’m not sure if generating such big feed won’t break it
Hello, We are looking to purchase your theme. Does this theme integrate with the Bullhorn ATS system? Thanks.

Hello Purethemes, The pages with map feature is showing like this when a person opens the page even after the google API key is added. “Sorry! Something went wrong. This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details.”
The console error is showing as below. “Google Maps JavaScript API error: RefererNotAllowedMapError https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#referer-not-allowed-map-error Your site URL to be authorized: http://www.myautomation.expert/for-candidates/"Hi
please follow this instructions to properly configure API keys http://www.docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/getting-an-api-key/
in that case the problem is with domain restriction, make sure it’s set to
http://www.myautomation.expert/*Hello, I followed the above instructions. But, still It is showing the same error as before.

I’m using workscout for login/signup . Where Can I change the link that is linked to the user page button?
If I use woocommerce for login/signup, Can I restrict the password length which is showing that the password should be atleast 12 characters ?
Hi
you can set custom user page in Appearance -> Customize -> Login/Registration Options -> User/login form page
or you can overwrite it with filter
add_action('workscout_user_page_url', 'my_user_page');
function my_user_page(){
return 'http://www.mylink.com';
}
And in case of woocommerce, you mean to add that feature?
Can the blog page template be changed or customized?
Hi
All blog related options are in Appearance -> Customize
Hello.
I really like your job board. Before buying it I have some pre sales questions.
- Is it possible to use job board only for registered members? I’d need only a log in form on front end. - Can I add custom fields to application form? - Can applicants edit their uploaded resume/CV? - Is it possible to add custom search filters? For example years of experience. - Is it possible to display tags in a particular job description? To reach similar jobs. For example: sailor, machinist - Is it possible to translate front/back end to Norwegian language?
Thanks, Andsmith
- Yes, you could do so with some free plugins like Restrict Content
- Yes you can (requires Applications add-on)
- Yes (requires Resume Manager add-on)
- Custom search filters require modifications in code
- Yes it is, tags are available
- Yes, the front-end is fully translatable, the backend partially
Hello, I would like to change the login order when I access the registration. Currently starting as an employer, but I’d like you to start with a candidate. Where can I change this in the popup and in the traditional registry?
https://snag.gy/nbA1iO.jpgWould it be possible to change the form of choice for a radial button?
Hi
there’s option in Customize -> Login/registration options to switch the role order, but there’s no option to change it to radio button
Thanks!
Hi, A pre-sale questions. Sorry if it sounds repetition but I need clarification before I make the purchase. Does the theme has the following features: 1- Custom images/ads be placed in any page 2- Custom fields such as “email and Contract Years” be added to the job listings 3- Description excerpt in the job listing? 4- Font color and size be changed/ one-click change of site color from green? 5- job alerts can be sent as newsletter using Mailchimp etc Thanks for you reply.
ad1. We don’t have any special feature for ads placement
ad2. It is possible to edit fields https://wpjobmanager.com/document/editing-job-submission-fields/
ad3. Can be easily added
ad4. Yes
ad5. About this one I’m not sure, I don’t think there’s option for that, Job Alerts is a 3rd party plugin
Thanks for the reply Purethemes. For the first question, I have bought themes that block some of the pages from adding extra items such as images, ads etc. That’s the only reason I asked, as long as it doesn’t have such problems, it’s ok Thanks again.
Support, Do you have a demo with user and password login, please provide asap.
thanks Vish
You can register yourself on demo site to test the front-end functionality, but we don’t have admin access demo.
ok Will this theme work with buddypress?
We don’t have any special compatibility with buddypress
can i add feature image instead of job type on the right side of job post in job listing page.
In case of job listing the Featured Image is actually a company logo
Hi, is it compatible with woocommerce booking?
Hi, no it isn’t
Hello, I have some questions upon receiving some feedback from our client after reviewing their test job board site:
1. A number of their testers were confused by the “Users Page” button in the menu header and suggested changing the term to a more familiar “Profile” or “My Profile”. Where/how can we change the term on the button?
2. Is there a way to change “Account Details” to “Profile” on the candidate & employer dashboard side menu and the Account Details page title (/my-account/edit-account/)?
3. Post a Job form: Is there a way to set which fields are required? We would like to make the ‘Location’ field and the Company Details > ‘Website’ field, which are currently optional, to be required instead.
Regards, Frank
Hi Frank
ad1. You can use this method http://www.docs.purethemes.net/workscout/knowledge-base/how-can-i-change-some-words-in-theme-like-for-example-find-job/

Hi guys,
how to make on Job Overview when you click on Apply for job -> to open like this -> http://prntscr.com/kz0tte ? Do I need WP JobManager add-on for it ?
Hi
To have it exactly like this you need Applications add-on https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/applications/
Good afternoon, I have just noticed that applications aren’t coming through when the black button is being pressed to submit resume & apply.
After contacting WP Job Manager they have explained that this popup isn’t a native feature of their plugin, therefore the issue will be relating to the theme itself.
How can I hide the black button and keep just the blue one? Also where will these applications be stored as I cannot see them anywhere?
When the blue button is clicked they go into the applications section on my WP Dashboard but when the black button is pressed nothing seems to go anywhere.
Thank you, Adam
Hi
Can I see your website? I have no clue about any black/blue buttons
Hello and you sure can. It’s www.i4recruitment.com
Go into any job vacancy advertised, click apply and then use the black button at the bottom of the popup.
Ok so in the Apply for Job popup you have two options, either use the form from the Applications add-on (blue button) or as it’s stated below “You can apply to this job and others using your online resume. Click the link below to submit your online resume and email your application to this employer.”
This is the Resume Manager add-on part – but the black button doesn’t work because you most likely didn’t set the Submit Resume page in Resumes -> Settings -> Pages -> Submit Resume Page – if you’ll set it it should work. You can also disable this feature there and allow only the Applications add-on form
Hello, thank you for the detailed response. I am using resume manager for a different purpose and do not want people submitting resumes there.
I wish to disable this button please.
Thank you, Adam
I have just disabled that button following your instructions.
Thank you for your help. Adam
You’re welcome
Hello
We wanted to add additional custom fields to the form application. (Set the settings at: wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=job_application&page=job-applications-form-editor)
However, when we checked on the frontend it’s not reflecting. We are referring on the part when a user/applicant clicks on “Apply Job” button and a modal pops up and the user/applicant is asked to fill in additional details to their application. It’s not reflecting I’m afraid on the settings we field above.
The end goal was is to have an additional fields added on the application form.
Thanks and greatly appreciate your help.
Hi
can you send me link to your page with that form?
Hello, What are the plugins required to get this job portal up and functional… do you offer installation and customization support?
Hi,
If you want the same content as the demo page, you need to buy also some additional plugins, WorkScout is based on WP Job Manager and it’s add-ons. The free version of WP Job Manager allows for listing jobs and job submissions, If you want to have resumes, application, bookmarks, job alerts and other features you can see on a demo, the best way would be to buy the Core Add-on Bundle for 125$ https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/bundle/ – it’s all clearly explained in WorkScout description.
WP Job Manager is owned by Automattic so the company that ‘owns’ WordPress, I don’t think there’s a better guarantee that that plugin will work and will be maintained, can’t say that about other solution from developers who might abandon their project if they will stop selling. Using WPJM you are always sure you can change the theme any moment and all your data and jobs and everything else will still work. With other solution you might be stuck or have a lot of work to migrate your data.
The installation is pretty simple, we have it described in documentation, and theme comes with Setup Wizard that will install whole demo content for you.
Hi guys,
from where I can add testimonials ? I can’t find it in the dashboard?
Hi
it’s in the main menu in WordPress, make sure you’ve installed and activated plugin ‘Purethemes.net CPT’ – it comes with the theme
Thanks
Hi there, I have just integrated with Zip Recruiter, problem is, the jobs don’t appear on the map which I was hoping for? https://www.taskremotely.com/browse-jobs-with-map/ plus they are not showing on the homepage either. Can you please help change that
Jobs from Zip Recruiter don’t come with latitude/longitude data so we don’t have option to show them on map
