# "Applications" Addon Problems & Recommendations

 * I have bought the “Applications” addon it looks fine only with the following 
   problems;
 * 1. The SENDER appears to be “WordPress”
    OPTION/RECOMMENDATION: Will be logical
   for the Email Alerts sender to be my website which provides the service and alerts
   the Employer. So a sender should be something like “My Job Website”
 * 2. The email looks to be from the JOB APPLICANT’s email address.
    OPTION/RECOMMENDATION:
   This one too should be the one set by the admin. I mean the service’s website
   since #1 above the sender is “My Job Website”
 * #1 & #2 ABOVE:
    An email starting with [A candidate (Frank Esquire) has submitted
   their application for the position “JOB TITLE”.] should be a proof that the email
   is not from the job applicant but from the service provider.
 * 3. “Yahoo DMARC Policy Change” will cause alerts not to be sent to the EMPLOYER
   when the applicant’s email address is yahoo one. (refer to the links below)
    
   OPTION/RECOMMENDATION: Again using “My Job Website” as the sender makes sense
   and emails won’t be treated as spams even if they’re not yahoo.
 * 4. Clicking the link included in the email, “You can view this and any other 
   applications here: [http://www.mywebsite.com/jobs/?action=show_applications&job_id=1234&#8221](http://www.mywebsite.com/jobs/?action=show_applications&job_id=1234&#8221);
   takes me to the all jobs page (page with shortcode [jobs]) instead of to the 
   a page with other applications.
    SOLUTION?: Looks like the link is supposed to
   be “[http://www.mywebsite.com/manage-jobs/?action=show_applications&job_id=1234&#8221](http://www.mywebsite.com/manage-jobs/?action=show_applications&job_id=1234&#8221);
   NOTE: I have shortcode [job_dashboard] inside “manage-jobs” page.
 * CONCLUSION:
    1. I would like the sender to be “My Job Website” and not “WordPress”.
   2. The email address/sender to alert the user should be that of my website’s 
   brand and not applicant’s.

 * p.s. you can change the sender using some snippets [http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-email-settings/](http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-email-settings/)
