Dates of a job posting – suggestion/idea

    Many times a 3rd party recruiter does not want a date of posting to show on either the job listing or the posting itself. Outside of dinking with the CSS or even the PHP it would be great if a simple on/off switch was provided to turn a posting date on or off. As it is each change or update in the plugin requires a developer to access the code and turn off all incidences of a posting date.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I’ll have a look at home this is easiest to implement. Would a filter work for you, so that you can add it to your themes functions.php or a separate plugin, so that it will always work – even after plugin (template files) updates?

    I’m not sure if a filter is the best route. Better would be a way to set or disable the date function when creating the post and to allow the date to be edited over time.

    Example, I create the post today and want the date to show but in 30 days I want to turn it off. So each post would have or would not have a date based on the choice of the person creating it. Kind of a simple on/off switch.

    Definitely see this use case and will discuss with Coen a bit as well.

    Really appreciate the input / feedback here guys!

    Hey Bill,

    Appreciate your patience here and input!

    We are gonna look at addressing this with a filter at first and have made an issue for it over at:
    – https://github.com/wplistings/listings/issues/79

    For now this would require adding it to your theme’s functions.php file but once that’s set up we could look at getting you (or others) some examples / documentation of how to use it and potentially a stand-alone plugin that could do this.

    We’ll make sure to include any updates around this in our release notes (plugin changelog or over at https://develop.wplistings.com/).

    Kind Regards,
    Scott
