Apply Button

Hi Mike,

Cheers for all your help.

I’m trying to get the Apply button to just be a button, do you know the code (or field that should be called) that I should be putting into a link.

I’ve tried the workarounds elsewhere on this forum, but I’ve removed the
<div class="application_details"> as I don’t want anything popping up, just a button to link (rather than displaying a pop up).

Hope you can help as I need to do something with this today if possible.

Thanks every so much

This is the template file you’ll want to edit/override: https://github.com/mikejolley/WP-Job-Manager/blob/master/templates/job-application.php

After:
```
<div class="application">
```
I’d put something like:
```
<?php if ( $apply->type == 'url' ) : ?>
<a href="<?php echo $apply->url; ?>">Apply</a>
<?php else : ?>
```
Then before the final </div> add an <?php endif; ?>

Hi Mike,
```
<div class="application">

		<?php if ( $apply->type == 'url' ) : ?>
<a href="<?php echo $apply->url; ?>">Apply</a>
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>

	</div>
```
The code above creates a hyperlink to the url, but I’d like the url embedded in an explicit button so that when the user clicks the button, a website corresponding to the url will pop up in a new tab. Can you advise on how to achieve this, please?

Then style it like a button (maybe just add class=”button” if your theme has styles for that), and add target=”_blank” to make it open in a new window.

Do you mean this?
```
<div class="application">

		<?php if ( $apply->type == 'url' ) : ?>
<a href="<?php echo $apply->url; ?>" class="button" target="_blank"> Apply </a>
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>

	</div>
```
The button still doesn’t show up……

Can you show me a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Also, there is a better gist here: https://gist.github.com/mikejolley/99fef2c01d29cfa3837c#file-gistfile1-txt Thats from this doc: https://wpjobmanager.com/document/customising-job-application-process/
