Description
The Embeddable Job Widget add-on generates a JavaScript job widget embeddable on external sites from WP Job Manager listings, allowing opportunities to be replicated on blogs, intranets, or partner portals without duplicating entries. You define filters by category, location, or contract type, paste the HTML/JS snippet on any page, and jobs always appear synchronized with the original job board dashboard.
