How can I add an additional job type?
Right now we got: Full Time, Part Time and Internship.
I would love to add: Temporary
Could someone help me figure out what files need to be edited?
Thank you for your help.

I am using the latest version 1.1.3.1

Here is what I did. I make no expressed or implied guarantee about the completeness of this.


Add to your language file around line 14:
jobline->language->english.php

before

Code:

DEFINE('_JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME', 'Full-time'); DEFINE('_JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME', 'Part-time');

after

Code:

DEFINE('_JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME', 'Full-time'); DEFINE('_JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME', 'Part-time'); DEFINE('_JL_JOBTYPE_TEMPORARY', 'Temporary');

Add to jobline.php around line 459: before

Code:

$jobtypelist = array(); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '0', _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '1', _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '2', _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP );

after

Code:

$jobtypelist = array(); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '0', _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '1', _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '2', _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '3', _JL_JOBTYPE_TEMPORARY );

Alter the job type search in jobline.php around line 642 (note that the code treats internships differently, so I lumped temporary work in with full/part time): before

Code:

// Only show one job type $typequery = ""; if ( $type != "" ) { switch ( $type ) { case "internships": $typequery = "\n AND c.jobtype = 2"; break; case "normal": $typequery = "\n AND ( c.jobtype = 0 OR c.jobtype = 1 )"; break; default:

after

Code:

// Only show one job type $typequery = ""; if ( $type != "" ) { switch ( $type ) { case "internships": $typequery = "\n AND c.jobtype = 2"; break; //case "normal": $typequery = "\n AND ( c.jobtype = 0 OR c.jobtype = 1 )"; break; case "normal": $typequery = "\n AND ( c.jobtype = 0 OR c.jobtype = 1 OR c.jobtype = 3 )"; break; default:

Alter jobline.common.php around line 88: before

Code:

function getJobTypeString( $jobtype ) { $ret = ""; switch ( $jobtype ) { case '0': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME; break; case '1': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME; break; case '2': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP; break; } return $ret; }

after

Code:

function getJobTypeString( $jobtype ) { $ret = ""; switch ( $jobtype ) { case '0': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME; break; case '1': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME; break; case '2': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP; break; case '3': $ret = _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLORPART; break; } return $ret; }

Now for the administrative screens. Add to admin.jobline.php around line 383: before

Code:

// make the select list for the job types $jobtypelist = array(); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '0', _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '1', _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '2', _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP );

after

Code:

// make the select list for the job types $jobtypelist = array(); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '0', _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '1', _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '2', _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP ); $jobtypelist[] = mosHTML::makeOption( '3', _JL_JOBTYPE_TEMPORARY );

Alter admin.jobline.html.php around line 55: before

Code:

var jobtypes = new Array("<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME; ?>", "<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME; ?>", "<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP; ?>");

after

Code:

var jobtypes = new Array("<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_FULLTIME; ?>", "<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_PARTTIME; ?>", "<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_INTERNSHIP; ?>", "<?php echo _JL_JOBTYPE_TEMPORARY; ?>");

Thank you so much for helping with that additional option.
