    I am trying to change the “apply now” text on the job listings page.

    I am trying to remove the previous <td>, and change the <td> that holds the application link to colspan=”2″.

    I am also trying to change the text to a button I created.

    Sounds simple, right? UGH!

    I have changed the following:

    In setup.php, I have found every instance of [job_apply_link], and changed the Apply Now text to a link to my image (leaving the hyperlink shortcode)

    On line 125 of setup.php, I changed the variable $applynowtext to reflect the link to the image instead of the simple text (using the appropriate single quotes and escape characters)

    Having done this, I still get the simple text link saying “Apply Now” at the bottom of each listed job.

    I can’t find any other instance of “Apply Now” in any of the plugin’s files – so where is it coming from? Is it something in the database?

    How can I change this? The plain text apply now link is really boring and I need to change it to a graphical button.

    Jobs can be seen @ http://wp.waynereaves.com/jobs/. The only jobs on there are test positions as we are working on the entire site right now, so nothing is really “live”

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    In wp-admin, go to Job Manager -> Settings -> Display Settings -> Job Templates.

    Change the “Apply Now” text inside the [job_apply_link] shortcode to be the appropriate img tag, instead.

    thanks so much. I guess I was thinking too hard. Didn’t see that in the settings. I hope this helps someone else in the future.
