Regions for WP Job Manager

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 87% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   It works. Thanks a lot. Just add more feature or guide us how to show Regions in job detail view is perfect.

   This plugin has not been maintained for a LONG TIME. If you install it, it makes your website “crash permanently” as the “jquery” used in it, is no longer supported. @astoundify, the developer, has two themes that work with WordPress Job Manager: Jobify and Listify. I think it is not a good reference to offer these themes in the description of the plugin, seeing that they do not respond to anyone at support threads, nor give an explanation, nor update the plugin even knowing that it damages hundreds of clients (followers) websites. They should be a little more professional… and take care of faithful clients that use their plugin and that they gaved them their trust 🙁

   Sadly, this plugin is a poor idea. They SHOULD of used a drop down to query WP-Job Manager by the cords search found. Unfortunately, they convert the WP Job Manager Search fields to a drop down that uses a Taxonomy. This means it wont be compatible with many themes and plugins. I suggest using an AutoComplete field or a Select2 Field with AutoComplete locations. Maybe a predefined listing of jobs that set the cords and distances of the search.

   Sad to see the plugin developer let this go or another hasn’t offered to continue updating it; it’s worth paying for. Many directory themes rely on it.

   For the last 2 months the Region field is missing in the backend. No response from the developer give me the impression that this plugin is no longer being developed.

   The plugin idea is good and can be useful in many cases. In my case, having a dropdown list instead of typing the location does not work, since for some jobs, the location can be small cities. If it was the same old text input field, but with autocomplete from regions defined, it would be much better.
