Description
Xolius Job Board is a full job board in one free plugin — not a starter that needs five paid extensions before it is useful. Install it, run the two-minute setup wizard and your board is live.

- Bookmarks and a front-end account with all their applications
For employers
- Company pages with logo, about text, links and all open jobs
- Post and manage job ads from the front-end account — no wp-admin needed
- Applications inbox with shortlist / reject, and the CV and letter of every applicant
- Optional review before a new job ad goes live
For you
- Setup wizard: pages, look, contact details and sample jobs in two minutes
- Board inside your theme, or as a standalone portal with its own header and footer
- Accent colour, logo, header style and hero image under Jobs Settings

Paid add-ons
Xolius Job Board never locks features. If you want to earn from your board, paid add-ons are available under Jobs Add-ons:
- Paid Listings — sell job packages with WooCommerce
- Promoted Ads — paid ad slots on the board
- Field Editor — your own fields on the job and application forms
- Looks — premium board designs
- Job Widget — show your jobs on other websites
External services
Xolius Job Board does not contact any external service on its own. Two optional features do, and only after an administrator turns them on:
Xolius licence server (paid add-ons)
When an administrator registers a licence key under Jobs Add-ons, the plugin connects to the Xolius licence server (https://xolius.com/licence/) to activate the key. It sends the licence key, the site address and an anonymous site ID (a hash). After that, Xolius Job Board checks the key once a week and when the Add-ons screen is opened, and installed paid add-ons look for their own updates; these requests send the key and the installed add-on versions. No information about your visitors, users or content is ever sent. Removing the key stops all requests.
Terms: https://xolius.com/terms/ — Privacy policy: https://xolius.com/privacy-policy/
Google Indexing API (optional)
When an administrator turns on “Tell Google when a job goes live, changes or closes” under Jobs Settings and pastes their own Google Cloud service account key, Xolius Job Board tells Google when a job goes live, changes or closes. It signs in to Google with that key (https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token) and sends the job’s web address and whether it was updated or removed (https://indexing.googleapis.com/v3/url). Nothing else is sent. Turning the setting off or removing the key stops all requests.
Google APIs Terms of Service: https://developers.google.com/terms — Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
The “Get it” and “Learn more” buttons on the Add-ons screen are ordinary links to the Xolius shop (https://xolius.com/); nothing is sent until you click them.

Do I need WP Job Manager or another plugin?

No. Xolius Job Board is standalone. WooCommerce is only needed for the Paid Listings add-on.

Install the free Nextend Social Login plugin and its buttons appear on the Xolius Job Board sign-in screens.

Is anything locked without a licence key?

No. A licence key is only for automatic updates of the paid add-ons.

Where do the sample job photos come from?
-
The photos used by the optional sample jobs (assets/demo) were created by Xolius for Xolius Job Board with an AI image tool. They are released under the GPLv2 or later, like the rest of the plugin.

Changelog
1.2.0
- With the free Xolius Mail plugin active, the board’s e-mails (job ad waiting for review, job alerts, the copy of an application, welcome and password reset) can be edited in its visual editor and use your mail design. Without it, nothing changes.
1.1.0
- New name and code prefix. Boards set up with an earlier version keep their jobs, employers, applications, accounts and settings automatically.
- Admin: the setup reminder only shows on the Dashboard, Plugins and Jobs screens and can be closed; the WP Job Manager hint can be closed too.
- New settings (Jobs Settings Board): switch off the Dashboard widget or the grouped Jobs menu.
- Scripts and styles are loaded the WordPress way; structured data is printed with WordPress’ own functions.
1.0.3
- Job board on phones: the contact row and its buttons wrap instead of running off the screen.
1.0.2
- First release on WordPress.org: board, search and filters, employer pages, applications with CV upload, job alerts, bookmarks, front-end account, setup wizard, import / export, standalone portal look and Nextend Social Login support.
- Cart link in the jobs header when WooCommerce has items in the cart (paid listings).
- “Create resume” button when the Resumes add-on is active.
