in this tutorial, i will show how you can add a Previous Job and Next Job links on your job posts, for easy navigation through your job site.

here are screenshots:

first job post

in between jobs

last job post

Steps:

1) open /_includes/class.Job.php and add this block on the Job class

// get next job
public function GetNextJob($category_id=false)
{
	global $db;
	$condition = '';
	$sanitizer = new Sanitizer;
 
	if ($category_id) {
		$condition .= ' AND category_id = '. $this->mCategoryId;
	}
 
	$sql = 'SELECT id AS next_id, title AS title, company AS company FROM '.DB_PREFIX.'jobs WHERE 1 '. $condition .' AND is_active = 1 AND id > '. $this->mId .' ORDER BY id ASC LIMIT 1';
	$result = $db->query($sql);
	$row = $result->fetch_assoc();
	if (!empty($row['next_id'])) {
		return $row['next_id'] .'/'. $sanitizer->sanitize_title_with_dashes($row['title'] . ' at ' . $row['company']) .'/';
	} 
}
 
// get previous job
public function GetPrevJob($category_id=false)
{
	global $db;
	$condition = '';
	$sanitizer = new Sanitizer;
 
	if ($category_id) {
		$condition .= ' AND category_id = '. $this->mCategoryId;
	}
 
	$sql = 'SELECT id AS prev_id, title AS title, company AS company FROM '.DB_PREFIX.'jobs WHERE 1 '. $condition .' AND is_active = 1 AND id < '. $this->mId .' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1';
	$result = $db->query($sql);
	$row = $result->fetch_assoc();
	if (!empty($row['prev_id'])) {
		return $row['prev_id'] .'/'. $sanitizer->sanitize_title_with_dashes($row['title'] . ' at ' . $row['company']) .'/';
	}
}

2) open /_templates/default/_translations/translations_en.ini and add this on the [jobs] section

prev = "<< Previous Job"
next = "Next Job >>"
divider = "or"

3) open page_job.php and after this block:

// ######### list other jobs by the same company #########
$compjobs = $job->ApiGetJobsByCompany($info['company'], 5, false);
$sanitizedcomp = $sanitizer->sanitize_title_with_dashes($info['company']);
$smarty->assign('compjobs', $compjobs);
$smarty->assign('jobsat', $sanitizedcomp);
// ######### list other jobs by the same company #########

add this block:

// get next and previous jobs
$prev = $job->GetPrevJob(true); // set to true if previous job of the same category or leave blank
$next = $job->GetNextJob(true); // set to true if next job of the same category or leave blank
 
if (!empty($prev)) {
	$smarty->assign('prev', BASE_URL . URL_JOB . '/' . $prev);
}
if (!empty($next)) {
	$smarty->assign('next', BASE_URL . URL_JOB . '/' . $next);
}

4) finally, open /_templates/default/job.tpl and add the code below wherever you want the << Previous Job or Next Job >> links to appear.

{if $prev}<a href="{$prev}">{$translations.jobs.prev}</a>{else}{$translations.jobs.prev}{/if} {$translations.jobs.divider} {if $next}<a href="{$next}">{$translations.jobs.next}</a>{else}{$translations.jobs.next}{/if}

that should be all.

have you ever wanted to change the font of your jobberBase website to look a little like Facebook? i did a little research and tried it on the default jobberBase template. here’s what i came up with. it only needed change in the screen.css file.

once you download the css file, you only need to rename your /_templates/default/css/screen.css file and replace with this. from there you can customize this as you need.

see screenshots below:

homepage

all jobs

job details

send to friend

post a job

sidebar

apply for a job

contact form

footer

if you have a fairly large database of jobs, and you have companies that have over thousands of jobs, more or less you will probably be getting “Out of memory” error when trying to list all the jobs of these companies.

Error looks like this:

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 66584576) (tried to allocate 830 bytes) in /public_html/_includes/class.Job.php on line 58

The fix is to paginate the list of jobs instead of listing all of the jobs all the same time.

Here’s the steps:

1) Create a backup of page_company.php
2) Open page_company.php and replace all the code with this:

<?php
 
	$sanitizer = new Sanitizer();
 
	$sql = 'SELECT DISTINCT company FROM '.DB_PREFIX.'jobs';
	$comps = $db->QueryArray($sql);
 
	foreach ($comps as $comp)
	{
		if ($sanitizer->sanitize_title_with_dashes($comp['company']) == $id)
		{
			$company = $comp['company'];
			break;
		}
	}
 
	$jobsCount =  $job->CountJobsOfCompany($company);
	$paginatorLink = BASE_URL . URL_JOBS_AT_COMPANY . "/$id/";
 
	$paginator = new Paginator($jobsCount, JOBS_PER_PAGE, @$_REQUEST['p']);
	$paginator->setLink($paginatorLink);
	$paginator->paginate();
 
	$firstLimit = $paginator->getFirstLimit();
	$lastLimit = $paginator->getLastLimit();
 
	$smarty->assign('jobs', $job->ApiGetJobsByCompany($company, false, false, $firstLimit, JOBS_PER_PAGE));
	$smarty->assign('current_company', $company);
	$smarty->assign('pages', $paginator->pages_link);
 
	$html_title = $translations['companies']['are_you_looking'] . ' ' . $company . '?';
	$meta_description = $translations['companies']['meta_part1'] . ' ' . $company . '! ' . $translations['companies']['meta_part2'];
	$template = 'company.tpl';
?>

3) Open /_includes/class.Job.php and look for the block:

public function ApiGetJobs($type_id = false, $categ_id = false, $limit = false, $random, $days_behind, $for_feed = false, $city_id = false)
	{ ... }

add this block after:

public function CountJobsOfCompany($company)
	{
		global $db;
 
		$sql = 'SELECT COUNT(id) AS total FROM '.DB_PREFIX.'jobs WHERE company LIKE "'. $db->real_escape_string($company) .'"';
 
		$result = $db->query($sql);
		$row = $result->fetch_assoc();
		return $row['total'];
	}

4) Look for this block (should be below the block you just added):

// Get all jobs published by a company
	public function ApiGetJobsByCompany($company = false, $limit = false, $for_feed = false)
	{ ... }

and replace it with this:

// Get all jobs published by a company
	public function ApiGetJobsByCompany($company = false, $limit = false, $for_feed = false, $startIndex = false, $numberOfJobsToGet = false)
	{
		global $db;
 
		$jobs = array();
		$conditions = '';
 
		if ($company)
		{
			$conditions .= ' AND company LIKE "%' . trim($db->real_escape_string($company)) . '%"';
		}
 
		if ($for_feed)
		{
			// job was posted more than 10 minutes ago
			$conditions .= ' AND DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 10 MINUTE) > created_on';
		}
 
		if($numberOfJobsToGet > 0)
			$sql_limit = ' ORDER BY created_on DESC limit ' . $startIndex . ',' . $numberOfJobsToGet;
		else
			$sql_limit = '';
 
		$sql = 'SELECT id
		               FROM '.DB_PREFIX.'jobs
		               WHERE 1 ' . $conditions . ' AND is_temp = 0 AND is_active = 1 ' . $sql_limit;
		$result = $db->query($sql);
		while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc())
		{
			$current_job = new Job($row['id']);
			$job = $current_job->GetInfo();
			unset($job['poster_email']);
			unset($job['auth']);
			$jobs[] = $job;
		}
		return $jobs;
	}

So when listing jobs of a certain company with a few thousand postings, it will now paginate instead of listing all of the company’s jobs causing your page to throw “Out-of-memory” error.

this simple solution is for those looking at adding the ability for their jobberBase job board’s employers/posters to view job applications online instead of relying on the email applications sent to them.

instead of just send the applicant information to the job posters, this CV/Resume Viewer for 1.9.1 will store the applicant’s basic information as well as the applicant’s resume on your website’s database. your job posters will then have access to the list of the applications sent on their jobs online through a link sent to them when they first posted the job.
