 * Hi There,
    This plugin is great so far, but I have a one question.
 * I know you can change the general Job Manager Page Template, but is there a way
   of changing the category page template? I need to use a different page template
   or category template per job category.
 * Any ideas or work arounds would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

 * Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll a fix for this in version 0.7. In the mean time,
   you can add this to your install by making the following changes.
 * In frontend.php, line 251, add the following line:
 * `$category = get_query_var( 'jcat' );`
 * Then on line 258, insert the following lines:
 *     ```
       if( $category )
       		$templates[] = "category-$category.php";
       ```
   
 * You can then create a different template for each category. For example, if you
   have the category “Foo”, you could make a template called “category-foo.php”.
