Employer viewing their own listing see an Edit button or at least a note

    Seems it would be a great intuitive feature Employer’s might expect when viewing their own listing to see an Edit button or at least a note only they see, that they can edit the job in the Job Manager. Would you mind telling me what code I can use to do something like:

    if ( is_job_owner( $post->ID ) ) { display edit link / message }

    obviously is_job_owner is made up by me, hoping there is something like this?

    Thanks!

    Hi @etheos!

    This does exist, on the Job Dashboard. You can read about how to set it up, here:

    No need for custom code!

    Cheers.

    Thanks for the reply! My original post may have been confusing, or maybe I am confusing what you wrote… but the Job Dashboard I accidentally referred to as the Job Manager. I’m looking for a shortcut to provide the employer, where they can click an edit button on the job post, rather than having to navigate to the Job Dashboard to then select Edit next to the job in the list of jobs.

    I suggest this might be an intuitive UX feature because people are used to when viewing something on the web they’ve generated, to find an edit button right there and not having to navigate elsewhere and selecting it from a list.

    Hi! The buttons refer to the ID of the job as created in the Database; there’s no easy way to generate these links before-hand, and there’s no way to have a “generic” link that points to the job they created. So, you’d have to create these shortcuts by hand, somehow, since there’s nothing in the plugin that provides such a shortcut-type link.
