 * Hello,
 * weird situation, I added these lines to my functions.php:
 * remove_action( ‘single_job_listing_start’, ‘job_listing_meta_display’, 20 );
   
   remove_action( ‘single_job_listing_start’, ‘job_listing_company_display’, 30 );
 * But still meta and company information are presented on job single. Only if I
   add them to content-single-job_listing.php this information disappeared.
 * What I am doing wrong?
 * Thank you.

 * wrap your remove actions in a function hooked into after_setup_theme with a priority
   later than 11
