202621 releases

  1. WP Job Portal 2.8.0Latest

    • Major update: redesigned admin, clearer hiring flow and security fixes. Take a backup before updating.
    • Security: uploaded resumes and files are stored privately and served only through permission-checked downloads.
    • Security: stricter permission checks across jobs, resumes, applications, messages and payments. All sites should update.
    • Includes the 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 security fixes.
    • New: redesigned admin with one menu, an Approvals page, search and a dashboard of what needs doing.
    • New: hiring status separate from approval; candidates can withdraw; employers can close a job early.
    • New: saved searches can email new jobs; clean job/company/resume addresses and job structured data.
    • New: email failure warning, test email button and one-click unsubscribe.
    • Changed: a job needs a city or remote workplace; maps use your own Google Maps key.
    • Changed: deleting the plugin keeps your data unless you choose otherwise.
    • Improved: faster pages, plainer wording, better keyboard and screen-reader support.
    • Fixed: many smaller issues (job saving, settings, email attachments, page titles).
    • Fixed: OpenStreetMap maps without a Google key; visitors’ resumes stay private; “3 days ago” in every language.
    • Fixed: Licences, Reports, Candidates and Companies menu items are back; login on WordPress.com and Jetpack sites.

  2. WP Job Portal 2.7.2

    • Security.
    • Security: fixed a missing permission check on the admin “show role info” request, where any logged-in user could read another user’s company name, resume title or name by account id. The request is now restricted to administrators. All sites should update.

  3. WP Job Portal 2.7.1

    • Security and fixes.
    • Security: fixed a stored cross-site scripting issue where a logged-in employer could place script in a job’s structured data that ran for visitors of the job page. The job’s JSON-LD is now encoded so markup cannot break out of it. All sites should update.
    • Fixed: the registration page showed a blank area to visitors who were already signed in; it now links them to their dashboard.
    • Fixed: the Custom After-Registration Link for employers and job seekers was ignored unless an After-Registration Page was also chosen. It now works on its own.
    • Fixed: a required custom field on the registration form could be left empty once an earlier required field was filled.
    • Improved: the employer and job seeker registration shortcodes hide the role choice by default, since they already set the account type. Use hide_role=”0″ to show it.
    • Improved: a visitor who doesn’t choose employer or job seeker is now told to choose one, alongside the other form errors.
    • Improved: clearer descriptions for the registration and after-registration link settings.

  4. WP Job Portal 2.7.0

    • Major update: the separate add-ons become four premium products, and twelve of them are now free.
    • New: Recruit Suite, a hiring pipeline for teams with stages, scorecards, shared notes, offers with approvals and e-signatures, and recruiting reports.
    • New: Marketplace Suite, to sell job packages, credits and subscriptions through Stripe, PayPal or WooCommerce, with paid featured jobs, companies and resumes.
    • New: Smart Search & Matching, with AI job and resume search, suggested jobs and resumes, and match scores.
    • New: Pro, with the advanced resume builder, resume search, messaging, PDF and export, reports, instant job alerts and maps.
    • New: twelve former add-ons are now free: Shortlist, Tags, Job Alert, RSS, Social Share, Print, Tell a Friend, Copy Job, Cron Job, All Companies, Job Listing Enhancer and Widgets.
    • New: four-step setup wizard and sample data that fits your site.
    • New: Account Sign-Up setting, separate from WordPress’s “Anyone can register”.
    • New: saved job searches for job seekers.
    • Fixed: updating from 2.6 could end on a critical error. Existing job and company links keep working after the update.
    • Fixed: the salary, currency, education and postcode filters in search.
    • Fixed: RSS feeds, Tags, Shortlisted Jobs and Job Alert on new installs.
    • Fixed: other errors on new installs and in the Insufficient Credits popup.

  5. WP Job Portal 2.6.0

    • Added explicit Careers & ATS and Job Marketplace setup modes.
    • Added upgrade-safe existing-site compatibility mode.
    • Added mode-aware setup steps, administrator navigation, and diagnostics.
    • Improved keyboard and screen-reader support on the setup-mode screen.
    • Aligned the first setup step with centralized mutation authorization.
    • Added a persistent, server-derived onboarding checklist with per-administrator dismissal and reopen controls.
    • Added actionable mode, page, upload, add-on, and sample-data readiness diagnostics.
    • Added durable ownership markers, exact cleanup previews, and conservative cleanup for newly installed sample records.
    • Hardened optional sample-image downloads with bounded, image-only, traversal-safe archive extraction.
    • Preserved the selected operating mode during sample-page creation and protected pre-existing or modified demo content from cleanup.
    • Simplified mode-specific administration labels while preserving bookmarked and direct URLs.

  6. WP Job Portal 2.5.9
