Job Listings

The addon restyles WP Job Manager job archives and single job pages, adds layout choices, and seeds job taxonomies with predefined terms.

Set these under Reign Options > WP Job Manager > Archive page layout. The Job Listing Layout option has three choices:

Layout Setting value Default columns
List job_listing_list (default) 1
Grid job_listing_grid 2
Card job_listing_card 4

When you choose Grid or Card, two extra controls apply:

  • Job Listing Grid Layout - Grid Layout Default, One, Two, or Three. These map to the content-job_listing_grid_layout_* templates.
  • Job Listing Grid Column - Two, Three, or Four columns.

Under Reign Options > WP Job Manager > Single page layout, the Single Job Layout option offers three designs: Job One (default), Job Two, and Job Three. Each renders a different single-job template with its own header, meta, and company presentation.

The addon adds these checkboxes to the WP Job Manager Job Listings settings screen. Each toggles a taxonomy field on the job submission form. All are enabled by default.

  • Salary
  • Career Level
  • Experience
  • Gender
  • Industry
  • Qualification

Each field is backed by a taxonomy. An administrator must have terms in the taxonomy before a user can pick one (the addon seeds these automatically, see below).

Six job taxonomies are registered against the job_listing post type. When a taxonomy is empty, the addon seeds it with predefined terms once; it never overwrites existing terms.

Taxonomy Field Seeded terms
job_listing_salary Salary 9 ranges from $30,000-$40,000 up to $200,000+
job_listing_career_level Career Level Entry Level, Junior, Mid Level, Senior, Lead, Manager, Director, Executive, C-Level
job_listing_experience Experience No Experience, 0-1 Year, 1-2 Years, 2-5 Years, 5-10 Years, 10+ Years
job_listing_gender Gender Any, Male, Female, Other
job_listing_industry Industry 18 industries: Technology, Healthcare, Finance, Education, Manufacturing, Retail, Hospitality, Real Estate, Transportation, Media & Entertainment, Non-Profit, Government, Construction, Agriculture, Energy, Telecommunications, Professional Services, Other
job_listing_qualification Qualification High School, Associate Degree, Bachelor’s Degree, Master’s Degree, Doctoral Degree, Professional Certification, Vocational Training, No Formal Education Required

The job_listing_category taxonomy is also registered so its archive URL works with the job listings slug.

You can add, rename, or remove terms at any time under the matching submenu in the WordPress admin. Custom terms appear in submission forms and filters automatically.

Two shortcodes render job content on any page: jobmate_job_search_filter for a keyword, location, and category filter form, and jobmate_job_listing for a grid of jobs. See the Shortcodes section for attributes.
