Description

The Field Editor addon allows you to edit, add, and remove fields in job and resume forms from WP Job Manager, providing an administration screen where you can reorder, validate, and make any submit_job_form and submit_resume_form field required. Designed for those who operate job boards on WordPress and need to adjust forms without editing PHP, it supports creating custom fields such as text, select, checkbox, file, and multiline area, with validation configurable by type.

How to Download Field Editor

Field Editor is available for download here at Ultrapack. After receiving the .zip file, install it under Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the package, and activate it; with WP Job Manager already running, the new field editing menu appears under Jobs > Form Fields.

For job boards where each niche requires specific information (salary range, specific skills, certifications, languages, portfolio), this addon brings all the customization that previously required a developer into the WordPress interface. Recommended for those professionalizing their job board who need precise control over what candidates and companies submit through the website, without compromising compatibility with the WP Job Manager ecosystem.
