Hello,

I do not know if it is me that does not understand the system or is it so difficult.

I have the following problems:

1. I enabled the job list module, when I go the page where it is enabled it shows 5 jobs
2. When I make a job list menu item and look at the jobs, it just shows 2 jobs (where are the other 3) (see pictures)
3. When I look in the backend I see that all 5 jobs (devided by two employers) are all approved but as I said not shown at the menu job list but they are at the module job list.

4. (AS a guest) When I go to a job and click on the employers name to see his jobs, just 1 job appears while the company has 3 jobs listed.
5. (as a guest) When I sort jobs by date instead of featured, it tells me there are no jobs of this particular company (see picture)
5. When I log in and go to my jobs, I sort by featured jobs and when I change that to date, I get not my jobs anymore but jobs of another company and never I see my jobs again.
6. When I am a guest and go to the url of an employer its username is in the url, why? Not very secure is it?

WHAT IS HAPPENING? Are there maybe bugs with other components or with the template

I have just checked your site, some jobs are not displayed on front-end because they have expired.
Please have a look at Job manager in back-end, column Expire date.

To get these jobs published, you need to update Expiry date to furture date.

Ok, for my information, does an employer need to fill in a expire date themselfs because it is not done automatically. If this is thru, is there a way to fill it in automatically

I’m not sure why the “Expiry date” field is published in your site. Actually, it is system field and configured “unpublished” by default (not shown on form), and this setting is unchangable.

I just checked setting of this field in Form Field manager page, and this field is published. As the publish setting of this field can not be changed from back-end, so please give me account of your data manager tool (such as phpmyadmin), I will help you to set with unpublished.

This field will be updated automatically by cron job.

I helped you to update Expiry field. I did edit published field from 1 to 0 of the record in the table #__ja_form_fields that has field_name field with value “expiry_date”.

About cron job setting, you can find out more information via our documentation here:

Can it be that in th elist of fields the expire date field is still mention as published while it has a 0 in the database.

About the cron, I have YES at pseudo cron because I do not want to use a system cron, pseudo is working fine. BUt why is the expire date not filled in while I use the pseudo cron.

Please ignore this field, Job’s expiry date is calculated based on publish date and its duration.
Once the Job expires, the Status field will be automatically updated to Expired (by cron).

Ok, let me be clear to make sure we are doing it right:

My setup:
14 days trial with registration
No subscriptions
No credits
Yes packages

I have added a few jobs by using packages and by using trial 14 days. Because there is no expire date I can;t see when a trial is ending or when a normal job is ending, also a customer can’t see this. This is confusing because it would be nice if an employer can see when his jobs are ending so he or she can decide to renew a job. This is the reason I need expire date to be shown.

I’ll pass this case to our dev team to add Expiry date info in My Jobs listing page in the upcoming version.

FYI: At present, system automatically sends Email to Employer upon his jobs expiry.

Ok, great and Yes I know it sends an email but than the job is already gone. Employers like to see how many days there jobs have left. Now an employer has to count how many days he has left, Employers are lazy so it has to be easy for them :):).
