Unique Job Permalink

    Hi WP Job Manager,
    I could use some help. I’ve created a new jobs field called “Job ID” and it outputs just fine.

    What I can’t figure out is how to add this custom job id to the end of my job permalink so that each job url is unique. Want it to look like this: /job/[job-title]-[job-id]/

    I tried adapting your “Change the permalink slug for new jobs” snippet in your documentation but it didn’t work for me.

    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Sorry, but we aren’t able to help with custom code requests like this. You may want to look into one of these services:

    Hi Adam,
    I’m confused isn’t that essentially what you are doing here: https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink/#section-2

    I did the following and both the company name and job location did not get appended when I created a new job listing from admin?

    Let me know. Thanks!

    We can provide some examples in our documentation, but there’s just no way we can support every possible use case or customization someone might want to make.

    Probably because you submitted the job from the admin dashboard. Jobs should always be submitted, edited, etc. from the frontend pages, not the WordPress dashboard itself. This is how WP Job Manager is designed to work. Try it that way and it should be OK.

    Adam,
    Thanks for the explanation. I didn’t realize that submitting jobs via the dashboard would be any different from submitting jobs from the frontend pages?

    Seems like that’s pretty limiting and would be nice if they behaved in the same manor. Just curious – why the disconnect?

    Anyway I put my vote in for them to be the same in near future! Thanks again for the help!

    When you use the backend dashboard to submit new jobs, none of the code in our plugin that usually runs on a new job submit actually runs.

    This include the submit_job_form_save_job_data filter in the example code here:

    https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink/#section-2

    … which is why it doesn’t work when you submit jobs from the backend.
