Feedwordpress import job type

    Hi guys,

    I’m trying to import jobs via an RSS feed using Feedwordpress.

    I’ve managed to get the jobs into the admin, but they only show in the frontend if I manually add the job type to each one.

    How do I import a default job type? I guess it’s a custom meta type fieldy thing! Either _job_types or job_listing_type

    My “full time” job type has the ID of 49, but adding that to either or both of the above isn’t working?

    Any ideas would be really appreciated as I don’t want to have to manually update hundreds of jobs daily if I can avoid it!

    Job type is a taxonomy – you’d need to assign that term to the job listing on import. See if the plugin you’re using to import lets you set a term on import.

    Hi Mike, Thanks yeah I can set a term, that’s what I mean I’ve added:

    _filled 0
    _featured 0

    Which means the jobs are now importing and showing in the “job listings” admin area, but I don’t think the jobs themselves will have a job type in the feed, so I just want to set a generic job type to each one..

    How would I do that? What “key” do I need?

    You would set the term to ‘full-time’ for all jobs.
