Title: [Plugin: Job Manager] Missing Apply Page – 404 error Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Job Manager] Missing Apply Page – 404 error * [lauraupcott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lauraupcott/) * (@lauraupcott) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-job-manager-missing-apply-page-404-error/) * Hi, I broke my “Apply” link somehow and I’m not sure how to fix it. I may have accidentally deleted the “Apply” page. When I click the “Apply” link at the bottom of a job description it returns a 404 page. * How I can get the “Apply” form working again? I tried creating an Apply page but it doesn’t work. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/job-manager/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/job-manager/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * [victorndiema](https://wordpress.org/support/users/victorndiema/) * (@victorndiema) * [15 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-job-manager-missing-apply-page-404-error/#post-1757845) * @lauraucott Did you ever get a solution to your problem, I have the same issue but cant find an answer here is my link [http://finestofrwanda.com/jobs-2/adminstration/](http://finestofrwanda.com/jobs-2/adminstration/) * Thread Starter [lauraupcott](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lauraupcott/) * (@lauraupcott) * [15 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-job-manager-missing-apply-page-404-error/#post-1757846) * Hi @victordiema No, i didn’t find a solution. I decided to use a workaround. I deleted the Job Manager Apply page link. Then I created a new “Apply” page with a contact form and inserted an A link to the new Apply page. * It’s not perfect but at least you job seekers will have a way to apply to your jobs. * [victorndiema](https://wordpress.org/support/users/victorndiema/) * (@victorndiema) * [15 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-job-manager-missing-apply-page-404-error/#post-1757847) * Hi @Lauraucott,I am trying my level best to see that i can make it work.Do you mind if I can have a look at your website and see how you created the apply link.

Title [job_icon] [job_title]
Categories [job_category_links]
[job_field_label] [job_field]
Apply Now[/job_apply_link]
``` * I only changed one line. Here’s the last section of the code before I changed it: * ``` [job_apply_link]Apply Now[/job_apply_link] ``` * Here’s the last section of the code after I changed it: * ``` Apply Now[/job_apply_link] ``` * I just removed the from the original code and replaced it with the actual link to the apply page. I don’t know why the “job_apply_link” is broken. * Now the “Apply Page” opens. I still have to fix the set up of the Apply page, but at least it’s not a 404 page anymore. * Hope this helps! * [victorndiema](https://wordpress.org/support/users/victorndiema/) * (@victorndiema) * [15 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-job-manager-missing-apply-page-404-error/#post-1757849) * Thank you so much for the assistance.
