    A couple of months ago I unistalled WPManager because there was something not working anymore. So I waited and now I have reinstalled it, only to discover that nothing has changed, though it is advertised that a new release was issued.
    I have also contributed to the translation and my name is not on the contributors’ list, so I gather the plugin is not updated.
    On a more negative note, no shortcodes are working, and no job page was created.
    I also have every settings back up again, as if they were not deleted. I recently used SuperCache so I wonder why is the old WPManager installation overriding this new one.

    Any explanation?

  • Hi aresenalemusica,

    I wish I could help but I’m not super familiar with databases and cacheing files from old plugin installations.

    I do know there are check boxes in the ‘Uninstall Settings’ inside the ‘Admin Settings’ tab in the Job Manager dashboard, which are all checked by default so I’m guessing that when you uninstalled it you had them checked. I don’t know why old settings would still be there.

    All I can say is I recently installed the plugin and everything works as intended, using WordPress 4.2.4 and a custom theme. If you remember the name of the job page that was created before maybe try making that page again, titled the same thing.

    Sorry I can’t help much that is all I can think of.

    Ok, I have checked the boxes and unistalled. A new installation has now deleted any old data and a jobs page is actually created. However, I cannot edit this page, if I put the shortcodes it will show blank.
    Since it’s long time I don’t use this plugin, is there some procedures I should take first.

    Hi aresnalemusica,

    Actually yea a little, you don’t use shortcodes like most other plugins (in the page itself to generate the content).

    Instead you go into the Job Manager settings, and there are multiple tabs. Find the one that says ‘Display Settings’.

    Scroll all the way down and you will find a lot of fields where there should already be templates with shortcodes within. Here is where the actual editing of the pages is handled.

    Anything you place inside of the job page that gets created in the wordpress page dashboard does zero for the frontend.

    I remember and followed your instruction, I created a job offer, I’ve been playing around but no result as the job page still shows blank.

    arsenalemusica: You seem to go back and forth between the two different plugins. In order for us to help you we need to know some basic info.

    Oh, thank you for showing interest in solving my issues. Your link to “requested info” is actually taking me to WP main page, so could you list what info you need? I’ll be happy to share them.

    It looks like your plugin has been removed from the WP repository. I was going to reinstall it to give you the info you requested, which are:
    php 5 and Wp 4.3 on this site (but now you cannot test it as the plugin is not installed, please check why it has been removed)

    ok, I have been able to reinstall Job Manager:
    WP Install 4.3
    Job Manager Installed 0.725
    Website URL

    my job page is blank, so I cannot view any changes I make

    I highly suggest you review the information and test for Theme and or Plugin conflict

    If it’s your Theme you will have to work with your Theme Dev.
