Custom search for WP job manager

[ftleow]

Hi guys,

I've been clueless after trying to get this work:
this tutorial

Can someone point me to the right direction of accomplishing this?

I tried using the "add_action" in functions.php file within the function is that I merely output the custom form in php format inside the genesis_loop, the search isn't working, no error though, is just a dummy form, it isn't passing any values for search_location and search_keywords.

Have read up on custom template file, still clueless what are the steps for this particular case. Will there be any array involved? What should be in the custom template file? How exactly does that apply for this case? If anyone could just put it in sequence of statements - will be very helpful.

Oh, yeah, I'm using genesis framework.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

See the page_landing.php file in your theme which you can copy and rename.

Something like this will get you started but you'll need to modify bit to work with your 3rd party plugin:

<?php

/**
 * Template Name: Job Search
 * @author  Brad Dalton  
 */

remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );

add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'wp_job_manager_listings' );
function wp_job_manager_listings() {

?>

<form method="GET" action="http://local.local/jobs/">
  <p>
    <label for="keywords">Keywords</label>
    <input type="text" id="search_keywords" name="search_keywords" />
  </p>
  <p>
    <label for="keywords">Location</label>
    <input type="text" id="search_location" name="search_location" />
  </p>
  <p>
  	<label for="search_category">Category</label>
  	<select id="search_category" name="search_category">
  		<?php foreach ( get_job_listing_categories() as $cat ) : ?>
  			<option value="<?php echo esc_attr( $cat->term_id ); ?>"><?php echo esc_html( $cat->name ); ?></option>
  		<?php endforeach; ?>
  	</select>
  </p>
  <p>
    <input type="submit" value="Search" />
  </p>
</form>

<?php

}


genesis();

Thanks, Brad, this looks good to me.

I've also seen and learned a lot from your website's tutorials.
