How to highlight an ad?

Hey there,

Could you please provide us with a little more detail on what ad you want to highlight or pin? A screenshot and the page link would be super helpful for us.

To upload and share a screenshot, you can use this platform. Details on how to make a screenshot can be found here.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

@bizanimesh sorry, but my site doesn’t have published ads yet. But I thought my question is quite understood without any screeenshots. I need the ability to pin an ad to the top of the page or highlight it with a color. It’s on all ad sites.

You can highlight and pin an ad to the top of your listings by checking the “Featured Job” checkbox when editing the job post or by using a job posting package on the front-end to publish it that has the “Feature Listings?” checkbox selected under the “General” tab of the product in WooCommerce > Products.

@hastibe I can’t see such an option. By the way it must be not free one

The first part (checking the “Featured Job” checkbox when editing the job post as an admin) is in the free WP Job Manager plugin. The part I mentioned about using a job posting package involves also using the free plugin, WooCommerce (which WP Job Manager integrates with).

If you don’t see the first option, my guess is that your theme is overriding it or another plugin is conflicting with it–maybe try doing a conflict test, as described here (but for WP Job Manager, instead of WooCommerce): https://woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts

@hastibe what does this “Featured Job” option look like? Could you show it in a screenshot, for example? The tests reveal nothing. How can this option be returned (enabled)?

Hi @triptikon

When submitting a job, there’s an option to set the job as featured. When checked, the listing will be styled differently and be sticky, so it will display at the top of your results.

You can see the flow for submission (including the featured setting), here:

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/adding-jobs-via-admin/

You could possibly also make use of the shortcodes to add another [jobs] shortcode to the page, and use the featured argument to true, to show only featured listings with that shortcode. You can use that in addition to another shortcode output to the same page.

You can read more about the shortcode and the available arguments here:

Cheers!

@rynald0s thanks, found this option. The fact is that some fields contain incorrect translation into Russian. This is where I get confused. I think others do too. By the way, can you at least tell me how to delete and edit fields in Submit form? The standard instructions on your site on this topic do not apply. Also interested in how you can make the option “Featured job” available to users and paid?

Hi@triptikon

By the way, can you at least tell me how to delete and edit fields in Submit form?

You can unset the fields using a code snippet. You’ll find an example here:

You’ll also find some information on how to edit the fields here:

@rynald0s I repeat:

@triptikon
just as @hastibe mentioned above, it seems like your theme is overriding somehting, or your code is not correct.
I tested the snippet to remove fields on our current dev site and it works.

Hi @triptikon –

I also tested the code snippet to remove a field and it worked without issue. As others have helpfully suggested, you will want to try a theme and plugin conflict test next.

Try disabling all of your plugins except WP Job Manager. Then try testing again to see if the issue persists. If that resolves your issue, you can find what was causing it by enabling each plugin one by one while continuing to test.

If that doesn’t help, you can also try switching to the Twenty Twenty theme via Appearance > Themes, and test again. If the issue is resolved then you know it’s a problem with the theme, and you’ll need to contact the theme author for further assistance.

Let us know how it goes.

@lastsplash is this the wright snippet for removing these fields?

add_filter( 'submit_job_form_fields', 'gma_custom_submit_job_form_fields' );

function gma_custom_submit_job_form_fields( $fields ) {
    
    unset($fields['company']['company_website']);
    unset($fields['company']['company_video']);
    unset($fields['company']['company_twitter']);

    return $fields;
}

Yes, that appears to be correct.

If you are still having issues, you will need to proceed with the theme and plugin testing mentioned above.

that appears to be correct, but it doesn’t work. And the tests doesn’t show incompatibility
