Upload the `bizcope-job-circular-manager` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the `Plugins` screen in WordPress. 3. Go to `Job Circulars > Settings` to configure notification and display options. 4. Add job posts from `Job Circulars > Add New`. 5. Create your own page manually and place `[bjcm_job_grid]` wherever you want to show the frontend job listing. 6. Use `[bjcm_application_form job_id="123"]` if you want to embed a standalone form outside the single job template. ## FAQ ### How do I show jobs on the frontend? Add the `[bjcm_job_grid]` shortcode to any page, post, or shortcode-compatible area. ### Does the plugin create a job listing page automatically? No. The plugin does not auto-create frontend pages. You have full control to create your own pages and place the shortcodes manually. ### Can I choose a different job grid layout? Yes. Set a default layout from `Job Circulars > Settings`, or override it per shortcode using examples like `[bjcm_job_grid layout="list"]` or `[bjcm_job_grid layout="minimal"]`. ### Where are applications stored? Applications are saved as a private admin-facing custom post type inside WordPress under `Job Circulars > Applications`. ### Which CV file types are allowed? Only PDF, DOC, and DOCX files are accepted. The maximum file size can be configured from the plugin settings screen. ### Are uploaded CV files public? No. CV uploads are placed in a protected plugin-specific uploads directory and are intended to be downloaded by authorized admins through secure WordPress links. ### Can I disable the application form temporarily? Yes. Go to `Job Circulars > Settings` and disable the application form option. ### Does the plugin remove its data on uninstall? Only if the `Delete Data on Uninstall` setting is enabled before uninstalling the plugin. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Bizcope Job Circular Manager” is open source software.

the plugin does not auto-create a job grid page on activation. * Added a one-time rewrite refresh on plugin upgrade so permalink changes apply more reliably after updates. #### 1.0.2 * Fixed critical CV download security issues and removed unauthenticated download access. * Added duplicate-application prevention and IP-based submission rate limiting. * Added configurable maximum CV file size setting and matching client-side validation. * Removed unsafe template `extract()` usage and hardened frontend/template data handling. * Added a per-job application shortcode helper and JobPosting schema output. * Added job application cleanup when jobs are deleted and synced stored job title snapshots. * Added cached settings retrieval, application count tooling, and safer uninstall handling for multisite-aware cleanup. * Improved email handling with logging, delivery tracking, status-update emails, and safer admin review links. #### 1.0.1 * Added cache-busting asset versions based on file modification time to prevent stale frontend/admin CSS and JS after updates. * Added customizable email template settings with dynamic placeholders. * Improved application success/error handling for both AJAX and non-AJAX submissions. * Fixed same-page redirects after job application submission. #### 1.0.0 * Initial release. * Added Job Circular and Job Application custom post types. * Added responsive job grid shortcode with search, filters, pagination, and multiple layout styles. * Added secure application form shortcode and single job template integration. * Added email notifications for admins and candidates. * Added settings page and uninstall cleanup support. ## Meta * Version **1.1.3** * Last updated **2 days ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 6.4 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.0** * PHP version ** 7.4 or higher ** * Tags * [applications](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/applications/)[careers](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/careers/) [hiring](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/hiring/)[jobs](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/jobs/) [recruitment](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/recruitment/) * [Advanced View](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bizcope-job-circular-manager/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
