    That’s hard coded. Over 138K user downloads and you are the first to ask about it.

    This is not a quick fix because that data is stored in arrays, and would require testing to ensure we don’ break anything.

    You do know you can use the Selected Job Widget that has no Limits?

    I looked at you Jobs listing page. Are you aware that you can Set the Category as a Drop Down Selection instead of running in one long list ?

    I guess there is always a first!

    I’m taking over this job from someone who previously set it up so I’d like to know if there is a better way to display all jobs in a list based on category exactly how it appears now. I didn’t come across any shortcodes or anything in documentation on how to do this.

    The documentation could be better. We are working on that in steps. Soon to be implemented via Sidekick walk-throughs. It still takes time.

    Job Manager is very powerful, complex and at the same extremely customizable.

    You do have to spend some time reviewing the shortcode placement and options
    for the Jobs Lists Template and and Individual Job Template, within the Display Settings and experimenting to get the most out of it. Modifying widget is not the answer.

    It’s advisable to have a staging server or local host version with your current DB so you can test out configurations to your liking.

    I can tell you the way your jobs are listed now does even take advantage the pagination features built-in.

    Here are just a few examples of what others are doing with JM

    It seems there is no way to do this within the template? Seems like such a basic thing to list respective job categories w/ their respective jobs within that category below them.

    CAT 1
    – Cat 1 Job 1
    – Cat 2 Job 2

    CAT 2
    – Cat 2 Job 1
    – Cat 2 Job 2

    Looks like other people need this but there is no solution.

    3 years ago this plugin was pretty much abandoned.

    If your a coder or not you should understand that when it comes to software development there is no such thing as BASIC or EASY. Taking this on also means we have to maintain backwards compatibility too.

    If you really have a desire for this change you can do several things to help support it.

    Get involved:

    You can contribute to the source code on our Bitbucket repository.
    Users can contribute by making a donation.
    And you can make a recommendation for an enhancement on the place to do that.

    I just don’t have enough hours in the day right now for the updates were working on to jump at an enhancement that no one has bothered to post a request for. The forum is for support and if it’s not a feature of the plugin then you should make a proper request and we will follow up with adding to the list. Its therefore not a bug and not a problem if the plugin doesn’t have a feature you want.

    Feature adds are usually made by the consensus of users that take the time to provide the details in the proper venue for that. I realize this does not answer your immediate need however, I have made suggestions.

    Maybe you overlooked this. Go back and look at the #1 Example above and perhaps you can use that.

    Those Buttons for Legal and IT are a LIST of Jobs by Category. very similar to what you requested.

    Hope this helps.

    No, I do get it. I know nothing takes only a little time.

    Thanks for your help!
