hi i was wondering if you are able to add or change the taxomany to the options eg drop down lists for configruable positions and disable the deadline field

also displaying the positions in reverse date order eg newest ad displays on first job page instead of last
similar to the classifieds module ( the latest classifieds ad block )

and thanks a lot for the great module keep up the good work.

Thanks for the catch on the sorting order. The behaviour you suggest was what was intended so I consider this a bug and have since fixed it in 6.x-1.2.

With regards to the options drop down lists for job location and deadline these aren't currently editable through the admin interface. You'd have to modify both hook_install() in job_posting.install and hook_form() in job_posting.module to change these as the countries list is implemented as a database table.

Concerning the ability to disable 'deadline' outright, you'd need to modify hook_form() to make required = FALSE. HOWEVER, then you also have to account for the fact that there are a number of conditionals throughout the code that depend on this field being set. Unfortunately, I don't have time to implement this cleanly right away but I'll try to include it as a new feature along with any other issues that need to be addressed for the next release. In the interim, you could always set the deadline far in advance and then remove it from the teaser and page views in your theme.

Version: 6.x-1.1 » 6.x-1.5
Status: Active » Closed (fixed)

Release 6.x-1.5 (among other things) adds the ability to specify 'permanent' job postings that effectively ignore the deadline fields.
