Adding Job Listings

With the WP Job Manager plugin, you can add jobs in one of the two ways:

• As an administrator, adding them via the admin screens

• As an employer, posting jobs via the front end of the site

First, we'll add a job via the admin screens.

Adding a job via the admin screens

The administrator (that's you) will add jobs via the admin screens most of the time:

1. In the WordPress admin, go to Job Listings | Add New.

2. Add a title and description for the job and select the job categories and job types that apply to it (not that these are different from the categories you might be using for your site's posts, but just apply to jobs):

3. Scroll down to the Job Data metabox and add the following information:

   • Location: Enter your location here.

   • Company Name and Company Tagline if relevant.

   • Company Logo: Upload this using the media uploader, as shown in the following screenshot. Click on Use file to add it:
