Being shortcode based, it can work with any theme (given a bit of CSS styling) and is really simple to setup. #### విశేషాలు * Add, manage, and categorize job listings using the familiar WordPress UI. * Searchable & filterable ajax powered job listings added to your pages via shortcodes. * Frontend forms for guests and registered users to submit & manage job listings. * Allow job listers to preview their listing before it goes live. The preview matches the appearance of a live job listing. * Each listing can be tied to an email or website address so that job seekers can apply to the jobs. * Searches also display RSS links to allow job seekers to be alerted to new jobs matching their search. * Allow logged in employers to view, edit, mark filled, or delete their active job listings. * Job statistics for employers about job listing views and search impressions. * Developer friendly code – Custom post types, endpoints & template files. The plugin comes with several shortcodes to output jobs in various formats, and since its built with Custom Post Types you are free to extend it further through themes.

To do an automatic install, log in to your WordPress admin panel, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add New. In the search field type “WP Job Manager” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found the plugin you can view details about it such as the point release, rating and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by clicking _Install Now_. #### Manual installation The manual installation method involves downloading the plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favorite FTP application. * Download the plugin file to your computer and unzip it * Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin folder to your WordPress installation’s `wp-content/plugins/` directory. * Activate the plugin from the Plugins menu within the WordPress admin. #### Getting started Once installed: 1. Create a page called “jobs” and inside place the `[jobs]` shortcode. This will list your jobs. 2. Create a page called “submit job” and inside place the `[submit_job_form]` shortcode if you want front-end submissions. 3. Create a page called “job dashboard” and inside place the `[job_dashboard]` shortcode for logged in users to manage their listings. **Note when using shortcodes**, if the content looks blown up/spaced out/poorly styled, edit your page and above the visual editor click on the ‘text’ tab. Then remove any ‘pre’ or ‘code’ tags wrapping your shortcode. For more information, [read the documentation](https://wpjobmanager.com/documentation/). ## FAQ ### How do I setup WP Job Manager?

See: [Customizing the Job Application Process](https://wpjobmanager.com/document/customising-job-application-process/) ### How can I customize the job submission form?

I just wish there was more customizations that can be done specifically one thing I would like to do is be able to edit with the button text throughout the system. Some of them don’t really make any sense. Like for example, when someone submitting a job it says preview, but that makes the user think that all they’re doing is previewing it and they’re not taking the next step towards submission. I would like to change that button into Preview and submit job to make it more clear. Another example would be allowing for making the link opening a new tab, changing link colors and a variety of other things. Adding more options in settings like this would be helpful.Also having more common page builder support like the Elementor theme builder to allow for custom page design would be helpful. I could also see ACF/SCF integration being really helpful as well. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5526b96f60a11b3310ca631d31468a293ab3cd2377d254567c93ac827fa2467d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[THis app is a shirt show](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-app-is-a-shirt-show/)󠁿 [Brand Idea](https://profiles.wordpress.org/brandidea/) ఫిబ్రవరి 28, 2026 Formatting and style is a mess. You’re going to have to do a lot of work to get it to display correctly. It’s not plug and play. I did a TON of work and code correction. When I finnaly got a job posted and tested it. I clicked a job listing to apply and thse giant black mushroom type graphics spread accross the full width of the page displayed. You had to scroll down 3 pages worth to see the job listing – which was also full PC screen width. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2208b9aa0ad2adfbc05c9e8198b25aea79cc671b39adbcf8a30eb39699e38fc2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excellent](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-14088/)󠁿 [abuhumhum](https://profiles.wordpress.org/abuhumhum/) అక్టోబర్ 11, 2025 1 reply That was very helpful ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1d5c3be45044fc5cfd9b0c12baaf1181b9c84114fbebcdbf442fd92b726d14e8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[A MESS.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-mess-4/)󠁿 [sightunseen1](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sightunseen1/) సెప్టెంబర్ 4, 2025 1 reply Are these developers kidding me?

To fix it to a decent standard, I would have to spend a fortune on a designer and developer. The plugin developers must be living in the past because they’ve failed to update the design to meet current standards.This has led to a surge of scammers selling their ‘premium’ themes for WP Job Manager on platforms like ThemeForest. I personally bought Cariera, Jobify, and WorkScout – all of which turned out to be empty promises. These themes are unstable, display inconsistently across different browsers, and conflict with other essential WordPress plugins. Reaching out to the developers is like shouting into the void. But the biggest issue is that WP Job Manager is completely unsuitable for niche-specific job boards. The lack of ability to add custom fields and filters is a crime for a plugin like this. I’ve had to resort to using additional plugins like WP Job Manager Field Editor and Search and Filtering for WP Job Manager, but they’re just as buggy as the main plugin. And their developer never responds to support tickets. Developers, wake up! You’ve created a product that nobody needs in this state.
