Hi, testing the demo of the latest update 2.0 the theme looks even cooler, congratulations!!

1. Does update 2.0 support php 7.4 or only up to php 7.3? 2. I can see that there are major changes in this theme update, could you please post the Changelog?

Thanks again for your great theme

Hi

it should work fine on 7.4

I’m writing now a guide how to update theme from previous version as some things will need to be set again, also if you’re planing to update please first do it on some staging site, not on your live site. This was quite a big update and many things were done from scratch, also most functionality is now moved to a plugin (as required by ThemForest reviewers)

I’ll also add a full changelog

Hi thanks for the latest update! It’s great! I have a question. How do I change the wordings in typewriter piece in the banner. Like “Hire experts or be hired… ” Thanks

Some are also in wp-admin -> WorkScout Core ;)

Thanks. I have chagned the wording to my own in Home Search Options but it’s still showing the original template words? Any ideas? Thank you

Cache. If it won’t work after flushing cache contact us using support tab.

dear all,
I would like to buy your template but before that, I need to know, does your theme has some features that I need or not?
1-Job offers
2- job Agencies:
2-1: register agent
2-2: agents can register users or candidate
2-3: admin can see users registered by agents
3-: admin can generate reports as excel about agencies information
Thanks in advance

Hi,

1. Yes
2. Yes
2-1. Yes.
2-2. No.
2-3. No.
3. No.

Hello, I want to replace the form (Resume form) that comes with the demo with the customized form, I already purchased the plugin Wp application and customized the form however its not displaying any where? pleas advise

Hello sir. In demo theme preview, I see the “Papular Cities” options and under this i see the different states such as newyork, miami https://workscout.in/home-2/ in my case when i install theme just “papular cities” heading is showing but no cities and states is showing. Please tell me how to activate this option. please see my main homepage http://medassunited.com/ Thanks

how i change the size of image box

Without customization, which of these things can I do….1) Can I setup the template so that employers can only contact employees if they have a contract with the employee? 2) Is there a way to have a rating system for employees with feedback and star rating, for example? 3) I want to have admin upload documents and assign to employers. 4) Employers can leave comments about each job. 5) Employees can upload resume and ID. (I know some css and how to install plug ins myself)

Hi

None of this is possible without customisations. The last option is but requires Resume Manager plugin

Pre-purchase question -

Can it be used as Freelancing marketplace? Like employer posts a freelancing job – candidates apply to it – employee awards him/her – then review him/her?

No, it’s just classic job board

Hello,

I have installed this theme successfully on site. But In the ‘Candidate dashbaord’ page is broken with [candidate_dashboard] shortcode. This page is showing this shortcode. What is this issue?

https://amlogia.com/candidate-dashboard/

Can you please guide me how I can solve this?

Hi

you need Resume Manager add-on for that

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 header shows logo and menu on different rows, but i need in one form

Can you show a link or screenshot of that? On lower resolutions the layout will automatically switch to ‘alternative’ where the menu is in row below the logo. Otherwise it wouldn’t fit most menus, but you can control that in Customize panel

I fixed that, can you please let me know how to add the contact number to top of menu on header?

Hi

we don’t have such option in WorkScout, no place for that, you could try to edit header.php to add it somewhere but it would probably require some additional CSS to position it somwhere

everyone has been waiting for the update for 6 months. they just promise. However, they prefer to delete ratings and comments (which is actually already a scam). Support also fails. when will the big promised update come? We finally want to implement a functioning page.

We don’t have option to remove ratings or comments, Envato does that if they break the rules. Throwing “scams” like that is not nice.

Update is almost ready. You can contact us via Support Tab and I’ll send you pre-release version

is the pre-release version a fully functional version or do we have to update it again? sorry but there is no point in constantly reworking the pages or waiting for the bought ones forever. in terms of sales, it must be possible to name a clear date. Everyone has been waiting for their announced update here for 6 months! And according to envato’s mail info, they deleted ratings and comments. With all understanding that you can not expect anything high quality at the prices, it is still so if you as a buyer do not get what you buy, then that is …

Hi I’m having big problem on the web. Normally, when a job offer is to be posted, the advertiser must first preview and then he can post the offer in the next window that appears. The problem is that now when an advertiser clicks on the preview button it does not go to the next window, it cannot post de job offer. When he clicks on preview, he simply stays on the same screen. Three advertisers have contacted me for the same problem and when we test we have the same problem too, only sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. We’ve tried uninstalling plugins, for example, caching plugins, but it didn’t work either. I really need your help on this. Thank you!

Hi

Please contact me via support tab with admin access to your WordPress, I’ll check it

Hi, I have an issue with /company/ urls, I get a 404 error when clicking on a company’s link (company’s logo on a job page). I tried saving permalinks but this did not work. How can I have it working properly? Thanks !

I was able to get almost everything work with the exception of the jobs list page.

The big deal is that while my maps, location search and autocomplete work perfectly, the mile radius is not calculating properly. I have a job in New York, NY, USA and I search for Brooklyn, NY, USA with 60 miles radius, but the job does not appear in results. When I change the radius to 6000 miles then it shows. I triple checked the job’s coordinates and everything looks right, except for the search page.

Check if you configured API key correctly, and that is not domain restricted (the API key for Job Listings -> Settings)

please also renew your support

Is there a status on the next update that fixes the distance filtering bug? Our people don’t want to renew until it’s released as it has been “coming” for over a month.

Hi

sorry but what bug with distance filtering?

Same one mentioned 21 days ago. https://themeforest.net/item/workscout-job-board-wordpress-theme/13591801/comments?page=111&filter=all#comment_23233258

The sidebar location/distance filter on searching resumes doesn’t filter search results.

I have a fix for that, I can apply that on your website, we’re just working on new big update and I thought we’ll manage to release it last week but didn’t finish everything on time

Hi, I would like to ask you, if I remove my website based on specific domain www.example.com, can I use my theme regular license on an other project with different domain name? Thank you!

As I can understand, you tell me that I needn’t to do any action and I can to start my new project based on same license! Yes or No?

We don’t check license activation (yet, but due to big increase of warez site we’re planing to add activation system to our themes) so you can install it on new domain but legally, one license allows to use it on one domain.

Ok, thank you very much. This is the reason which I ask you all these questions in order to be legally.

Hello! I have a presale question. Can I add custom fields to the candidates sign up form? Could we automatically forward the candidate application to the employer by email? Please tell me which plugins should be used to have this options. Best regards!

Hi

ad1. There’s no option to add custom fields to sign up form without customizing that in code

ad2. You can use Contact Form 7 to send applications so that will come as email to employer. Using Applications add-on will send notification about new application

Thank you for answering!

Hey we just bought your theme but it seems that the header background is not working, is there a bug in the theme? i cant find it in the code ether

I replied to your email.

Looking forward to push the job board live soon and just saw the comments that the new update is coming soon with new layouts and dashboards. Do you have the exact timing for that? Would be useful to decide whether to postpone the launch of the board. Thanks!

I hope it will be ready after weekend, I’d wait as it will require setting up some new things after updating from older version.

Hello, just wanted to check on this for any updates?

Hi,

Thanks again for your great theme.

I’m fiddling a little with my own category icons, but whatever size I choose it appears very squeezed. Is there a work-around?

KR, Peter

Hi, this will be fixed in upcoming update and there’s no quick CSS fix so if it’s not urgent please wait a couple of days

Cool, will look forward to the update :)

Not sure if this helps anyone, but I updated to Resume Manager (v1.18.0) yesterday and my Resume map/list page ran into issues with function(response). The issue is the map wouldn’t load, and my sidebar filters wouldn’t work. Console in inspector showed the error.

I think I found the issue in /wp-content/themes/workscout/js/workscout-resumes-ajax-filters.min.js

In the Workscout .js file at around line 64 it uses:

success: function( response ) { .......

When looking at the Resume Manager /wp-job-manager-resumes/assets/js/ajax-filters.min.js I see that same line uses:

success: function( result ) { ......

I swapped the whole ajax block from Resume Manager file into the Workscout file and it worked for me.

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll check it
