“hr” is not a job manager shortcode, but themes need to use the_content() to output post content in order for shortcodes to work. If your theme does not follow best practices and use these functions, it might be time to look for another.

I know, it`s a shortcode of the theme “inovado” http://themeforest.net/item/inovado-retina-responsive-multipurpose-theme/3810895
I think it`s a good theme.
I`ve got the problem with a lot of html-tags.
Simple Example: a table
<table border=”3px”>
<tr>
<th>Überschrift, 1. Spalte</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1. Zeile, 1. Spalte</td>
</tr>
</table>
the border don`t appears.
The shortcodes work fine when I creat a simple page, only in the job-listings don`t works.
Thanks for your support!
The table thing sounds like CSS styling – again nothing to do with this plugin 🙂
Add a page in the wordpress backend, and inside add [submit_job_form]. If you have WP Job Manager installed, it will show a form. If you do not, or the theme does not support standard WordPress shortcodes, you’ll need to ask the author.

no, the problems are always there.
Please give a example how you would insert a table in the job-listing.
Or a separator line.
Thanks a lot.
I assume you mean the [hr] inside a job posting?
If our shortcodes are working, this is not a problem our side. You should look at whatever creates/allows you to use the [hr] shortcode.

no, sorry, this was a misunderstanding. no kind of shortcode of the theme works with job-manager.
Show me where you are adding this shortcode.

I only want to insert a table border around the text and some separator- lines. Thats all :-).
You can only use shortcodes that exist. the one in Remi’s screenshot will only work if you’re using his plugin and have that field.
Same for HR. It will only work if something (such as your theme) defines it.
If you want to add borders around elements, you can do so with CSS. This is not a Job Manager issue 🙂

Oh Mike, 🙂 ALL,ALL shortcods of my theme don`t work with job manager.
you asked me “Show me where you are adding this shortcode. ” and I gave you only a example picture of a backend-area, cause I don`t know how to upload a screenshot of my backend here in place.
I try html and css for the table and I can`t see a border anyway.
Please try it yourself. Write me a small table script that works in your job manager “edit job listing” area. and I will copy an paste it and look what happens. Please!! 🙂
Why do you need a table script 🙂 Switch from the visual editor to the text area and add some HTML. No shortcodes required.
ALL,ALL shortcods of my theme don`t work with job manager.
Jobs are not different to regular posts. Maybe they aren’t “real” shortcodes added through the WordPress shortcode API.
