    This may be a conflict in WordPress’ permalinks. Doing it like that, WP won’t be able to tell if its showing a page or a job.

    You can try going to settings > permalinks and resaving to see if it clears up the conflict.

    Just a note however, [submit_job_form] is not for applications, so why name it like that?

    I did that. No change. Still seeing a 404.
    Is something wrong in the settings?

    I don’t follow you.

    Looing at it, it is because WordPress cannot distinguish your page from a job – the base URL is the same. Careers.

    You’ll need to make the submit page a top level page rather than a child of the careers page, or change the slug for job listings to singular ‘career’ so the permalinks don’t conflict.

    Yes, you are right. It’s the permalink conflict. The moment I relocated it to a top level page, it started showing the form.

    But, how do I edit the job application form? Can’t find it anywhere in the settings.

    And, one question (and suggestion maybe) – my WP login URL has a custom slug. The moment I click on sign in (on the application form) I see the slug in the url along with a few other additions to the url. So basically, my login url goes from private to public.

    I hope I explained correctly. Any solution for this?

    The job **submission form** (its not an application form) can be edited via code (see https://github.com/mikejolley/WP-Job-Manager/wiki/Editing-Job-Submission-Fields) or you can try https://www.remicorson.com/product/wp-job-manager-custom-fields/

    Can you give me an example of your login URL? I’m not 100% sure what you mean.

    Oh okay.

    My login url is not blog.com/wp-login.php. It is blog.com/custom.php.

    So it is not known to public. But when I click on Sign In in the application form, I see the custom url in the url box (with extra variables attached to its tail.) So, is there a way to avoid showing it?

    That was easy! Thanks Mike.
