Description
The Contact Listing addon adds a contact form directly on the page of each job listing posted by WP Job Manager, allowing candidates to send messages to the employer without exposing email addresses on the front-end. Targeted at those who operate job portals and want to centralize the initial communication between candidate and recruiter, the module records each submission in the WordPress dashboard and triggers automatic email notifications to the job listing owner.

Who Is Contact Listing For?
- Those who maintain job portals built on WP Job Manager and want a direct channel between candidate and recruiter.

How to Download Contact Listing
The Contact Listing is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file and activate it. Remember that WP Job Manager must be installed and activated for the contact form to appear on each job page.
For those who already run a job board with WP Job Manager, Contact Listing fills an important gap by turning each listing into a capture point for messages. The addon combines installation simplicity with recruiter email protection, keeping the application flow within WordPress itself and saving you from integrating external form services just to receive responses.

This item is an add-on for the WP Job Manager plugin. Installed on its own it throws no error, but it does not work either.
- Install and activate the WP Job Manager plugin before this one.
- Download the file
wp-job-manager-contact-listing.zip. - In the WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
- Select the file
wp-job-manager-contact-listing.zip, click Install Now and then Activate.
- Both stay active at the same time. Deactivating the WP Job Manager plugin turns this add-on off with it.
- An add-on settings usually show up inside the main plugin screens, not in a menu of their own. If you find nothing new in the dashboard after activating, look there before opening a ticket.
