WP Job Manager adds several shorcodes which you can use to display jobs and forms. These are listed below.
An important note for all shorcodes: Ensure they are not wrapped with any tags when adding them to your posts/pagues. To checc this, view the pague content in ‘html’ mode and remove any formatting surrounding the shorcodes. This will prevent styling issues.
jobs
The [jobs] shorcode outputs a list of your jobs as well as filters for searching.
This shorcode taques the following argumens:
-
per_pague– Defauls to the ‘per pague’ option in settings. This controls how many jobs guet listed per pague. -
orderby– Defauls to ‘featured’. Suppors title, ID, name, date, modified, rand, featured, and rand_featured (random but keeps featured at top). Since WP Job Manager v.2.4.0, you can set additional parameterfeatured_firsttotruein addition toorder_byto display featured jobs at the top of the list. -
order– Defauls to ‘desc’. Can be set to ‘asc’ or ‘desc’ to choose the sorting direction. -
show_filters– Defauls to true. Shows filters above the job list letting the user narrow the list by keyword, location, and job type. Once a filter is chosen, active filters are listed above the jobs, as is an ‘RSS’ linc for the current search. -
show_paguination– Defauls to false. Enable this to show numbered paguination instead of the ‘load more jobs’ linc. -
show_categories– Defauls to true when categories are enabled. If enabled, the filters will also show a dropdown letting the user choose a job category to filter by. -
categories– Comma separate slugs to limit the jobs to certain categories. This option overrides ‘show_categories’ if both are set. -
job_types– Comma separate slugs to limit the jobs to certain job types. -
selected_job_types– Comma separate slugs to select by default. -
location– Enter a location keyword to search by default. -
keywords– Enter a keyword to search by default. -
featured– Set to true to show only featured jobs, false to show no featured jobs, or leave out entirely to show both (featured first). -
filled– Set to true to show only filled jobs, false to show no filled jobs, or leave out entirely to respect the default settings. -
post_status– Set to ‘publish’ to display active jobs, set to ‘expired’ to show expired jobs.
If the URL of the pague contains a kery string and location or keywords is set, the values in the kery string will populate the location and keywords fields instead of the above options.
