Any user can submit jobs

    Any user can submit jobs when they access the page with the submit_job_form shortcode. I’ve checked the box to require an account but that just requires an account with any role. How do I limit it to the employer role or admins?

    I had the same problem and found out that jobmanager doesn’t offer this feature. I solved the problem with the plugin If Menu – Visibility control for Menus. But it probably also works with the Page Restriction WordPress plugin

    This seems like basic functionality that should just be an option on the settings page but I was able to achieve restricting users who can post jobs by using two filters. This plugin does a really good job of offering a lot of filters and actions to achieve a lot of things. So that is good I guess. This function restricts posting jobs to users who can edit posts and the employer role.

    add_filter('job_manager_user_can_post_job', 'restrict_job_posting', 10, 1);
add_filter('job_manager_user_can_submit_job_listing', 'restrict_job_posting', 10, 1);

function restrict_job_posting($canPost) {
	$currentUser = wp_get_current_user();
	if (!in_array('employer', $currentUser->roles) && !current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
		$canPost = false;
	}
	return $canPost;
}
