Gallery / Portfolio

The gallery extension allows displaying the gallery or portfolio on the job, resume, and company pages. The gallery thumbnails are clickable and will show in full size on click.

Configuration

You can download the Gallery extension from the client panel and then install and activate it like any other WP plugin from the wp-admin / Plugins / Add New / Upload panel.

After installation, you will need a File upload field in the job, company, or resume form. You can add it using drag and drop editor in the wp-admin / Settings (WPJB) / Custom Fields panel.

Once you add a field to the form edit it by clicking the edit (cog) icon next to it, enter the field name, make sure to select “Forms Only” in the “Visibility” field, and configure allowed extensions, number of files user can upload and max file size.

Finally, save the form.

The last step is to go to the wp-admin / Settings (WPJB) / Gallery panel and enable the gallery for the created field. You should see there a configuration options like in the image below

If you wish to have a gallery in the Job Form and your file upload field name is (for example) gallery, then in the “Job Form” field enter “gallery” (without quotes).

If you have more than one gallery in the form then simply list the field names separated by coma, for example, if you have fields gallery and gallery_2 in the Job Form enter “gallery,gallery_2”.

Similarly for the Resume Form and Company Form fields.

In the above screenshot, you can also see the Thumbnail Size and Image Size fields. In each of these fields you need to enter a value in the format “{width}x{height}” for example “100×100”, the difference between those fields is:

• Thumbnail Size – this is the size of the icon on the job details page
• Image Size – this is the size of the image itself. To have the best image quality in the thumbnails it is best if the Image Size is 2x bigger than the Thumbnail Size (for example Image 200×200 and Thumbnail 100×100).

Migrating From Gallery 1.0

Version 1.0 automatically created the Gallery field on activation, if you wish to migrate to version 2.0 you need to uninstall v1.0 and install v2.0.

Once you do that go to the wp-admin / Settings (WPJB) / Custom Fields panel, edit (or create) a Resume Form add a File Upload field to it, click the cog (edit) icon next to it, change its name to “gallery”, in the “Visibility” field select “Forms Only”, configure the allowed file uploads as you see fit and save the form scheme.

The old gallery from WPJobBoard Gallery 1.0 should now be restored.
