Job Manager & Subscribe2 custom post types

  • I am using your Job Manger plugin and it works great. I wanted to have my registered users receive an automatic email notification upon my posting each New Job. I installed the Subscribe2 plugin to accomplish this, but it doesn’t work with the Job Manager posts, only the default WordPress posts. Could this have to do with Job Manager using custom post types?

    Is there a way for Job Manager to trigger the Subscribe2 email notification upon posting a New Job? Is there something I can add to one of Job Manager’s PHP files to make Subscribe2 react to New Job posts?

    On the Subscribe2 website I found the following info:
    Subscribe2 can be enabled to send notifications for your custom post types with the code below. I’d suggest you add this code to the plugin you are using to create your custom post type.

    function my_post_types($types) {
    $types[] = ‘my_post_type’;
    return $types;
    }

    add_filter(‘s2_post_types’, ‘my_post_types’);

    If this is the issue, what Job Manager PHP file do I place this code in? Should I replace ‘my_post_types’ with the name of your custom post type? If so, what is the name of your custom post type (is it ‘jobman_job’)?

    Thanks

    This code can be put anywhere you like, really. It doesn’t have to be a Job Manager PHP file, just a PHP file that is loaded every time by WordPress.

    You are correct, jobman_job is the custom post type.

    I’ll add built-in support for this in 0.8.

    Thanks. I added the code below to the admin-jobs.php file and it works! Subscribe2 now sends email notification to subscribers upon posting a New Job. I appreciate your quick response.

    function my_post_types($types) {
    $types[] = ‘jobman_job’;
    return $types;
    }

    add_filter(‘s2_post_types’, ‘my_post_types’);

    I added the same (above) code to admin-jobs.php just before ?> but now when I submit a new job I get a 404 error page with the following message on the title bar:
    Nothing found for Wp-admin Admin Php?page=jobman-list-jobs

    Now I can’t add any new job!!
