SearchWP WP Job Manager Integration 1.6.2

SearchWP WP Job Manager Integration is a lightweight WordPress plugin that connects the keyword search field of WP Job Manager with SearchWP. It enhances how job board visitors search within WP Job Manager core and the WP Job Manager Resume add-on, aiming for more relevant keyword matches.

Instead of replacing your setup, the integration keeps the existing search behavior and filters intact. After activation, SearchWP handles only the keyword-provided results, while the other filters continue to work as they do today—making it a practical way to improve job board search without rebuilding your theme, template kit, or pages.

Main Features

• SearchWP keyword integration — Automatically takes over the keyword search field for WP Job Manager core.
• Resume add-on support — Applies the same keyword search improvement to the WP Job Manager Resume add-on.
• Preserves existing filters — Keeps all non-keyword filters functional and untouched.
• Results restricted to keyword matches — Limits output based on the integrated keyword search, rather than changing other query components.
• Compatibility with WP Job Manager search fields — Integrates with WP Job Manager’s search implementations for the keyword-only enhancement.
• Integration behavior filter — Supports the filter searchwp_wpjmi_hijack_job_listing_search to control how job listing searches are integrated.
• Activate-to-use setup — Once enabled, the keyword search handling is applied through the plugin automatically.

Benefits

• More relevant keyword results — Improves matching quality for users searching by job titles, skills, or keywords.
• Better user experience — Visitors see results that align more closely with what they type, without disrupting other filters.
• Filter consistency — Job board filtering remains familiar and stable across listings and resumes.
• Cleaner search intent handling — Limits changes to keyword-provided results while leaving other query logic intact.
• SEO-friendly search discovery — Helps search pages reflect more accurate keyword intent when your WordPress job board is indexed.
• Low-maintenance implementation — Designed to be used by activating the plugin rather than rebuilding search templates.
