I am using the terrific feature to add custom fields to JA Job Board! I have one field that I’m confused on how to make/configure (if it’s possible).

Upon registering, I would like users to agree to terms and conditions. The terms and conditions are quite long and are a document. It would ideally be best displayed with a link to another window/file to view document.

I see how to make all the different fields, even have Boolean “Yes/No” for “I agree to terms”, but not sure how to display the terms and conditions verbiage on the registration page or in a link. I’m not seeing anything that allows for text. The “Comments” command only shows a limited amount of characters.

Any suggestions would be appreciated! Just wondering if I’ll have to do a workaround or have to customize the code.

Thank you!

Hi,

You can customize Register Form by adding one more field with field type = boolean.

Agree Term is used in ” Field example “, however, you must customize this text box field to text area field to input value.

here’s what I did:
1. In language file find the terms verbiage and replaced with html with links to terms & conditions
2. In CSS & templates (register forms) I made the padding and border 0 on line 311 so that there won’t be an empty box there. I didn’t take out the whole div that gets the terms verbiage in case I wanted to use it later.

Hi mcarbone,

The “Agree to Terms” option in register form is available in JAJobboard 1.5.1 already. You can try to download and use it today.

Thank you, but I think hobokendiva was referring to a terms and conditions link (for example, to an article) as opposed to a window with the terms populated in the job board admin. (see screenshots)

I think the goal is to not dedicate so much real estate to the terms and conditions section, especially when they are so long.

I just looked at the demo admin for 1.5.1 in the described section, and I didn’t see an option for a T&C link.

Hi mcarbone,

JAJobboard doesn’t support to show checkbox with the term and condition link as you want. Please customize our template file to do that:

Hi,

I was merely answering (contributing) to the question in post #1. If you see in post #3, I provided a solution (template edit) that helped me. Nonetheless, thank you for the attention and support.
