Ok, after the repacked version of 1.4.2 im going to post the problems with this version or bugs which still hasnt been fixed.

1. Updates
Find a more comfortable way to update your product. Im using many scripts which you can update from the backend. Why not yours? If someone makes changes to templates or whatever, use overrides. Im using a brilliant script for reviews, i just click update in the backend and i got the newest version without configuring everything again or reinstalling.

2. Global settings- Payment settings
I cant update any payment module, it gives me this error:


1 - An error has occurred.
An Error Occurred During Update.

The question is, why?

3. Employer signup or Job seeker
After you fill out all fields and hit submit im getting this error:

* Could not instantiate mail function.

Message
Successfully updated your profile details!
Please Wait For Admin Approval Before You Can Perform Other Activities As A Employer

I havent had this “Could not instatiate mail function” any time before. Mail is still sent.

4. Job publish and posting date
This is error which i try to explain since the first version! Lets take the role, im using the job portal in australia and an employer from the states wants to post. He is submitting this job post but cant see it online as the timezones are different. You cant say that he should set his timezone different. He doesnot care about. He only wants to post his job and want to see it immediatly.
Suggested this many times. All other products which im using are able to make postings right on the fly if i choose the date from the calendar. I dont know where the problem is. Maybe remove the calendar, so jobs are always posted at the time the employer submits a posting.

5. Delete applications
Employers are not able to delete an application to their posting.
As employer i want to delete applications in which im not interested to have a better overview about the remaining.

6. Delete job posting
An employer is not able to delete his own job post. If he is creating it, he should be able to delte it when he got someone who fits in his job offer. Just imagine, hes posting the job for 30 days, after 10 days he found the right person for the job. Now hes still getting spammed with mails for another 20 days as he cant delete the posting.

7. Application mail to employers
You are currently sending a file within this email to track if the user has read this mail or not. Thats far against the privacy rule on any job portal website. I dont want that anyone knows when anyone is reading their mail. If you think its ok, give us a option to deny it. I dont want to have this.

8. job alert and saved search
field “Job posted by” “Select employer”, the name of the poster is there and not the company

9 URLS
The urls still have “component” and “jajobboard” there, ie:
component/jajobboard/japrofiles/XXXX.html
So how to change this?

10 Copy Job
If you have “no html emails” in backend and a jobposter copies the job, you are getting just a
blank mail.
If you have switched on html emails in backend, you will receive the correct email.

If needed, im going to update this list until 1.4.3 isnt out.

Thanks alot for informing me the access to your site and FTP for further inspection. However, I could not check the #3 issue as your site is still offline. Please enable online site as soon as possible

Any date for the next release? I was happy to see just 3 tickets left last days but today its up to 10 which is quite good as we could beat more bugs. But i need to know a rough timeframe when to expect, so im able to spend my time to this component again.

Cheers
Nick
