    Hi,

    Role scoper is a possible solution though – it doesn’t change settings for all plugins – you just add the capabilities you need to the role you have. If you don’t like Role Scoper, https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/ is similar.

    In the below example I have an author user and I’m using User Role Editor to modify things.

    1. In user role editor I go to Users > User role editor.
    2. I select author https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/xh9225zb55c2gua/2014-03-09%20at%2011.46%20%281%29.png
    3. I check edit_others_posts http://local.wordpress.dev/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=job_listing
    4. I check manage_job_listings https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/72uzbbaz20x18fr/2014-03-09%20at%2011.48.png
    5. Save

    Now my author can see the job_listings section (manage_job_listings) and approve the job (edit_others_posts) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/5dnywd3mn7h15g9/2014-03-09%20at%2011.48%20%281%29.png

    What part of that worries you? I’m open to tweaking required capabilities in core, but I am not adding new options for capabilities to the core plugin. That would be overkill.

    First of all thanks for the quick reply…
    actually role scoper scares me with 200+ check boxes and i really didnt want to touch anything since im a beginner i shd survive..
    I hav read all your forum topics and mostly u suggest another plugin(Thats a clever move n holding your 5stars for ever)..

    if you have time please add this in ur plugin only
    1. hidden contact form will drop down if you click apply job button
    2. Number of available post (like total 5 – where 3 filled and 2 left, apply now)

    Looking at both role scoper and user role editor, I prefer user role editor. I tested both before posting 🙂

    >I hav read all your forum topics and mostly u suggest another plugin

    I’m just trying to keep this plugin lightweight. Plugins with many moving parts go wrong more often. By keeping things lightweight we keep the code clean, bug reports down, and can focus on the core, key features.

    Regarding your ideas:

    1. I do plan on a submission form in the future (separate) however there are some out there already such as http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager-gravityforms-apply/
    2. I’ve never had that request but I’ll note it down.

    Thanks
