Hi Jan

I’m still stuck, as mentioned above, I added the code, but nothing changed. I added it to the custom css box in the mesocolumn plugin, and that didn’t work, so I took it out and instead put it in the custom css plugin I have and that didn’t work either.

Am I putting it in the right place?

Thanks for the advice.. doesn’t seem to have changed though. Does the error still show on your end?

[ No bumping please. ]

Thanks Gerald, the products are actual items though, not digital downloads..

Hi Rhys

I think it does lol, so I need to set up an account with a company which will recieve my email data and I’ll be able to send bulk emails through? Will this bypass me having to use my own hosting to send bulk emails, and will this be where I set up the unsubscribe option? (I think I read somewhere an unsubscribe option is essential to not being labelled as a spammer?)

Can you recommend a good company for the UK? Do any offer a free service? I’m low on funds at the mo!

Sorry for all the questions, I’ve never collected or sent bulk email before and not sure where to begin!

Thank you! ??

Sally

Thanks Mike, worked that out now ??

Hi again Mike

I’ve been getting some help with this, and with that have tried various things, but keep getting errors like this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘=’, expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in /home/rrokngem/public_html/thehouseofdog.co.uk/wp-content/themes/bp-fun-child/job_manager/job-application.php on line 16

Instead of a button appearing at all.

The code I’m using is

<?php if ( $apply = get_the_job_application_method() ) :
wp_enqueue_script( 'wp-job-manager-job-application' );
?>
<div class="application">
<?php echo do_shortcode('[level-advanced-business-users]'); ?> <input class="application_button" type="button" value="<?php _e( 'Contact this owner', 'wp-job-manager' ); ?>" /> <?php echo do_shortcode('[/level-advanced-business-users]'); ?>

<div class="application_details">
<?php
switch ( $apply->type ) {
case 'email' :

echo '<p>' . sprintf( __( 'To contact this owner email your details to %1$s', 'wp-job-manager' ), $apply->email, '?subject=' . rawurlencode( $apply->subject ) ) . '</p>';

echo '<p>' . __( 'Apply using webmail: ', 'wp-job-manager' );

echo 'email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'"target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Gmail / ";

echo 'email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'"target="_blank" class="job_application_email">AOL / ";

echo 'email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'"target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Yahoo / ";

echo 'email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'"target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Outlook";

echo '</p>';

break;
case 'url' :
echo '<p>' . sprintf( __( 'To apply for this job please visit the following URL: %1$s ?', 'wp-job-manager' ), $apply->url ) . '</p>';
break;
}
?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Can you see anything obvious I’m doing wrong?

Thanks

Sally

Have been chatting to WPMU staff, and they seem to think this may be an issue in my functions.php in my child theme, as this shows as ‘Job Title’ in a different theme. He’s supposed to be taking a look at it this morning, so will let you know how it goes ??

Hi Mike ??

Please see the form at https://www.thehouseofdog.co.uk/submit-a-request-to-find-a-dog-care-provider/ just below ‘your email’.

Thanks

Sally

Thanks Mike, worked that part out now ??

Have tried to add the code to restrict this to only members on level advanced business users and my code looks like this;

<?php if ( $apply = get_the_job_application_method() ) :
	wp_enqueue_script( 'wp-job-manager-job-application' );
	?>
	<div class="application">
		[level-advanced-business-users] <input class="application_button" type="button" value="<?php _e( 'Contact this owner', 'wp-job-manager' ); ?>" /> [level-advanced-business-users]

		<div class="application_details">
			<?php
				switch ( $apply->type ) {
					case 'email' :

						echo '<p>' . sprintf( __( 'To contact this owner <strong>email your details to</strong> <a href="mailto:%1$s%2$s">%1$s</a>', 'wp-job-manager' ), $apply->email, '?subject=' . rawurlencode( $apply->subject ) ) . '</p>';

						echo '<p>' . __( 'Apply using webmail: ', 'wp-job-manager' );

						echo '<a>email . '&su=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'" target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Gmail</a> / ';

						echo '<a>email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'" target="_blank" class="job_application_email">AOL</a> / ';

						echo '<a>email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'" target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Yahoo</a> / ';

						echo '<a>email . '&subject=' . urlencode( $apply->subject ) .'" target="_blank" class="job_application_email">Outlook</a>';

						echo '</p>';

					break;
					case 'url' :
						echo '<p>' . sprintf( __( 'To apply for this job please visit the following URL: <a href="%1$s">%1$s →</a>', 'wp-job-manager' ), $apply->url ) . '</p>';
					break;
				}
			?>
		</div>
	</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Is there anything obvious you can see I’ve done wrong, because nothing seems to have changed?

Thanks

Sally

Ok, my problem is that in bp-fun-child there is no file called job_manager

Should I create one? If so, should it be a php file and what should be contained within it? Then do I create job-application.php after that and just copy everything which is currently in wp-job-manager/templates/job-application.php to that? Then amend that file?

Thanks for your time and patience!

Sally ??

Hi Mike

Thanks for getting back to me, I’m a bit confused with the first part.

Do I simply go into my plugin editor and edit the file called wp-job-manager/templates/job-application.php directly? Or is it not that simple? Do I have to make a copy of this file somewhere? Sorry, I’m probably being really slow here, it’s just not quite clicked with me where to do the changes.

Thanks again

Sally

Thanks Jan ?? Sorry, a bit of a newbie!

After spending half of the day on this, I’m now wondering whether ‘forums’ is actually ‘groups’ in the new wordpress?

It seems that most of the online documentation for bbpress is out of date, frustrating.

I would consider it as a WordPress support question, because I’d like to build a site with a similar concept to this using WordPress, but every time I’ve tried so far I’ve found the wordpress directory unstructured (no menu, just a search bar!) and just can’t get my head around wordpress in general. It seems far more complicated than Joomla… hence asking for help on where to start.

Hi Andrew, have just done what I think your asking of me, and it’s resulted in what you can now see on the page.. A mess ??

I even thought of just adding a slider to this area instead, thinking it would be simpler, and hopefully that would include a search box, but I just can’t find a plugin which will do this and have a shortcode available to stick it in the area. I’m so frustrated I could cry right now! Just can’t seem to work this out ??
