Your new field will be ‘posted’ along with the other fields, but to change the results you’ll need to filter on this:
https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/blob/master/wp-job-manager-functions.php#L107
and look for your posted value, and then manipulate the query.
Ok, can you explain me “filter on this”?
Maybe on some example, please!
Appreciate it!
Ok, at first :
in job-filters.php i first need to add a field
I added row (need industry sector filter)
<?php job_manager_dropdown_categories( array( 'taxonomy' => 'industry_sectors', 'hierarchical' => 1,'name' => 'search_categories', 'orderby' => 'name', 'selected' => $selected_category, 'hide_empty' => false ) ); ?>
I don’t know is this right way, but no idea how to do that in other way.
problem is here : ‘name’ => ‘search_categories’ – if i change this to anything else, when open filter page no dropdown with choice selection, just multiple dropdown, and when i clicked nothing happens.
Secondly, i added this to wp_job_manager_functions.php file:
if ( ! empty( $args['industry_sectors'] ) ) {
$query_args['tax_query'][] = array(
'taxonomy' => 'industry_sectors',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => $args['industry_sectors']
);
}
is it correct step? i know what and how filter is doing job, and i think i only need to add this before filter.
You need to name it unique – don’t use search_categories.
I’ve written a simple example showing how it can be done. You’ll need this change in core if you use this method as I added handling for a new field class: https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/commit/49d84487eb51f168c26f806083c537e54a33c05f

Thanks for the tutorial, Mike!
Have you had any luck with getting the taxonomy to work, @lancha131 ? Ideally without modifying any core files? Using Mike’s tutorial, I can make it work with fields I add as post_meta, but I’m having trouble adapting that to a custom taxonomy.
I need this too. A lot! If you guys find anything, please respond here 🙂
I’ve modified Mike’s tutorial to get it to work with taxononmy. In this example, my custom taxonomy is called class_format
//Add the search filter for custom tax
add_action( 'job_manager_job_filters_search_jobs_end', 'filter_by_salary_field' );
function filter_by_salary_field() {
?>
<div class="search_categories">
<select style="display:block;" name="filter_by_class_format" class="job-manager-filter">
<option value=""><?php _e( 'Any Class Format', 'wp-job-manager' ); ?></option>
<?php
//Get the terms for class format
$terms = get_terms( 'class_format', array(
'hide_empty' => 0,
) );
foreach ($terms as $term){
echo'<option value="'.$term->slug.'">'.$term->name.'</option>';
}
?>
</select>
</div>
<?php
}//end function
/**
* This code gets your posted field and modifies the job search query
*/
add_filter( 'job_manager_get_listings', 'filter_by_class_format_query_args', 10, 2 );
function filter_by_class_format_query_args( $query_args, $args ) {
if ( isset( $_POST['form_data'] ) ) {
parse_str( $_POST['form_data'], $form_data );
// If this is set, we are filtering by salary
if ( ! empty( $form_data['filter_by_class_format'] ) ) {
$classformat = sanitize_text_field( $form_data['filter_by_class_format'] );
$query_args['tax_query'][] = array(
'taxonomy' => 'class_format',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => $classformat,
);
// This will show the 'reset' link
add_filter( 'job_manager_get_listings_custom_filter', '__return_true' );
}
}
return $query_args;
}
I think @lukelukeluke is very helpful, i hope you can help me too.
My industryes are showed properly in my html markup, but i couldn’t figure out the search filter, I got this code:
add_action( 'job_manager_job_filters_search_jobs_end', 'industry_field_field' );
add_filter( 'job_manager_get_listings', 'filter_by_industry_args', 10, 2 );
function industry_field_field(){
?><label for="search_industry">Industry: </label>
<select class="form-control adv_frm_style_s" id="search_industry" name="search_industry">
<option value=”” disabled selected>Select</option>
<?php foreach ( get_job_listing_industries() as $ind ) : ?>
<option value="<?php echo esc_attr( $ind->term_id ); ?>" ><?php echo esc_html( $ind->name ); ?></option>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</select>
<script>
jQuery( document ).ready( function( $ ) {
$( '#search_industry' )
.change( function() { $('#search_keywords').change(); } )
.keyup( function( e ) {
13 === e.which && $(this).trigger("change")
} )
;
} );
</script>
<?php
}//end function
function filter_by_industry_args( $query_args, $args ) {
if ( isset( $_POST['form_data'] ) ) {
parse_str( $_POST['form_data'], $form_data );
if ( ! empty( $args['search_industry'] ) ) {
$search_industry = sanitize_text_field( $form_data['search_industry'] );
$query_args['tax_query'][] = array(
'taxonomy' => 'job_industry',
'field' => 'term_id',
'terms' => $search_industry,
);
// $field = is_numeric( $args['search_industry'][0] ) ? 'term_id' : 'slug';
// $query_args['tax_query'][] = array(
// 'taxonomy' => 'job_industry',
// 'field' => $field,
// 'terms' => array_values( $args['search_industry'] ),
// );
}
}
return $query_args;
}
