JobBoardWP
What it is
JobBoardWP is a free, open-source WordPress plugin for adding job listings and management to a website. Visitors can search by keyword and location, then narrow results by remote work, job type, or category. Employers can submit listings, save drafts, preview them, and manage submissions from a dashboard. Administrators can review, edit, and approve jobs, or set submissions to publish automatically. They can also enable or disable job emails and change their text. The plugin adds structured data to listings so they can appear in Google job search results. It includes hooks for Ultimate Member and lists integrations with WPML, Polylang, TranslatePress, and Weglot. JobBoardWP is self-hosted, supports WordPress Multisite, and is listed as compatible with any theme, though styling or custom templates may be needed. It requires WordPress 5.5 or higher and PHP 5.6 or higher. The maker directs users to documentation and a support forum for setup help and questions.
