Preview Job Listing button clears out all content on some users

I’d start by seeing what caching is running on your server or as a plugin. Also remember to test whilst logged-out, because thats what the new users will be doing.

Thanks. I’ve definitely been logged out and it works just fine for me and others within our office, but hasn’t worked correctly with a couple of external people posting jobs (who work at universities and on university servers/computers if that info helps … not as if they are using a home computer or anything).

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by seeing what caching is running on my server. Is that the server my website is on or is the server the external people are on trying to post the jobs? And if it is mine I need to see, where do I go exactly to find that and what should I be seeing? (sorry, just trying to see figure out why it isn’t working for these few folks as our client is asking us). Thanks again for all of the help.

Hmm, could you see if they are using similar browsers e.g. ancient IE?

By caching, some hosts like WP Engine use Varnish caching. Im not sure if this would affect it, but its something to check.

I was actually able to reproduce this in Chrome for Mac. The data was posted, but the form/page didn’t change. This doesn’t occur on my site.

I’m thinking that the nonce check is failing:

if ( empty( $_POST['submit_job'] ) || ! wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['_wpnonce'], 'submit_form_posted' ) )
			return;

This could be caused by caching (because if the page is cached, the nonce will never be up to date and the form will fail to post). I may remove this nonce if its causing issues like this.

Thanks. The first person was using internet explorer and I also had her try it in firefox and chrome since she had access to those and she said it did not work on those either. I am pretty sure they are on PC. I’m working off of Mac Firefox and Safari and it works just fine for me (logged out of course).

Is there anything I should do with the nonce at this point? How should I check the cashing (if that’s easy to let me know). Thanks again for all of the help.

Make the 3 changes here: https://github.com/mikejolley/WP-Job-Manager/commit/26ee1330d89610bec5747775df20194dacaa7e6c Ignore the POT file.

See if that improves things and let me know when its done and I’ll retest.

Thanks. I appreciate the help. It always worked for me when I try to test it (I’ve never had caching issues), so hard to tell if it now works for the others having trouble. I’ve updated the .php files above. On class-wp-job-manager-form-submit-job.php, the line of code to correct was on line 424 instead of 472 so wanted to make sure that was ok. Here is a link if you are able to test. Thank you.

Thats working now. I’ve added that code in the latest update.

Thanks so much. I really appreciate the help and the revised code. I’ll let ya know if I have any more issues around this one.
