I’m trying to achieve the same thing, wanting to add at least the job location and category to the widget.
So far i managed to display the category this way (don’t know php, so it probably looks crappy but it makes me proud).
In widgets.php:
if( count( $jobs ) > 0 ) {
echo '<ul>';
$jobcount = 0;
foreach( $jobs as $job ) {
if( $jobcount >= $instance['jobslimit'] )
break;
echo '
<li><span>' . $job->post_title . '</span><br>';
#my part starts here:
$categories = wp_get_object_terms( $job->ID, 'jobman_category' );
foreach( $categories as $cat ) {
echo "Categorie: $cat->name";
}
echo '
<br>
</li>
<div class="button"><a href="' . get_page_link( $job->ID ) . '"></a></div>
';
$jobcount++;
}
echo '</ul>';
}
Don’t know if this helps you.
Now I still need to add the location, but I haven’t figured that out yet.
