Job Posting and custom fields
17 replies · Started by Takeru on April 6, 2022
I would like to automatically reflect the value of custom field in structured data job posting.
Is there anything I can add to the code snippet to solve this?
After entering the following script into the HTML block, the page in question is now compatible with structured data itself.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : "Software Engineer",
"description" : "<p>Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our products and technology serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services.</p>",
"identifier": {
"@type": "PropertyValue",
"name": "Google",
"value": "1234567"
},
"datePosted" : "2017-01-18",
"validThrough" : "2017-03-18T00:00",
"employmentType" : "CONTRACTOR",
"hiringOrganization" : {
"@type" : "Organization",
"name" : "Google",
"sameAs" : "http://www.google.com",
"logo" : "http://www.example.com/images/logo.png"
},
"jobLocation": {
"@type": "Place",

"streetAddress": "1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"addressLocality": "Mountain View",

}
},
"baseSalary": {

"unitText": "HOUR"
}
}
}
</script>Hi Marumoro,
You'll have to add some PHP on this script so parts are dynamically dependent to the custom field value.
Example: Assigning the custom field name of custom_title to the "title:".
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'custom_title' , true ); ?>,
"description" : "<p>Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our products and technology serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services.</p>",
"identifier": {
"@type": "PropertyValue",
"name": "Google",
"value": "1234567"
},
"datePosted" : "2017-01-18",
"validThrough" : "2017-03-18T00:00",
"employmentType" : "CONTRACTOR",
"hiringOrganization" : {
"@type" : "Organization",
"name" : "Google",
"sameAs" : "http://www.google.com",
"logo" : "http://www.example.com/images/logo.png"
},
"jobLocation": {
"@type": "Place",
"address": {
"@type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"addressLocality": "Mountain View",
"addressRegion": "CA",
"postalCode": "94043",
"addressCountry": "US"
}
},
"baseSalary": {
"@type": "MonetaryAmount",
"currency": "USD",
"value": {
"@type": "QuantitativeValue",
"value": 40.00,
"unitText": "HOUR"
}
}
}
</script>You can see that on the line that was originally "title" : "Software Engineer",, I changed to "title" : <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'custom_title' , true ); ?>, so its value is dynamic depending on the custom_title field value of the current page.
You can apply the same concept to the other key:value pairs. :)
You can do this on a Hook element hooked to wp_head. :)

Just make sure the "Execute PHP" feature is enabled so the PHP snippets would run.
It didn't work😅
For example, if I set the field "company_name" for my company name, is the following code correct?
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'custom_title' , true ); ?>,
"description" : "<p>Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our products and technology serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services.</p>",
"identifier": {
"@type": "PropertyValue",
"name": <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'company_name' , true ); ?>,
"value": "1234567"
},
"datePosted" : "2017-01-18",
"validThrough" : "2017-03-18T00:00",
"employmentType" : "CONTRACTOR",
"hiringOrganization" : {
"@type" : "Organization",
"name" : <?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'company_name' , true ); ?>,
"sameAs" : "http://www.google.com",
"logo" : "http://www.example.com/images/logo.png"
},
"jobLocation": {
"@type": "Place",

"@type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"addressLocality": "Mountain View",
"addressRegion": "CA",

"addressCountry": "US"
}
},
"baseSalary": {
"@type": "MonetaryAmount",
"currency": "USD",
"value": {
"@type": "QuantitativeValue",
"value": 40.00,
"unitText": "HOUR"
}
}
}
</script>Hi Marumoro,
Do you have execute PHP enabled?: https://share.getcloudapp.com/bLuKx9yd
Make sure as well that the quotation mark are straight and not slanted.
If you it enabled and it still doesn’t work, try something like this:
<?php
echo '<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : ' . get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'custom_title' , true ) . ',
"description" : "<p>Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our products and technology serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services.</p>",

},
"jobLocation": {
"@type": "Place",
"address": {
"@type": "PostalAddress",

}
},
"baseSalary": {
"@type": "MonetaryAmount",
"currency": "USD",
"value": {
"@type": "QuantitativeValue",
"value": 40.00,
"unitText": "HOUR"
}
}
}
</script>'; ?>You’ll be replacing for instance "Software Engineer" with ' . get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'custom_title' , true ) . ' so on and so forth.
Kindly let us know how it goes.
I inserted the following code with "job_title" as the job name field, but it is not recognized as structured data.
<?php
echo '<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : ' . get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'job_title' , true ) . ',

?>Forgot to add ; at the end. I modified the code above.

I tried with the following code, but it still did not work🤔

Hope to hear from you soon.
Please check👍
I can see the script here: [removed]
Can you try adding " ".
For instance:
<?php
echo '<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context" : "https://schema.org/",
"@type" : "JobPosting",
"title" : "' . get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'job_title' , true ) . '",

Thank you again and again for your kindness 😆.
I would be happy if you could remove the above screenshot as it contains site information 😅.
You’re welcome Marumoro! Glad it’s working now! I’ve deleted the screenshot as requested. Feel free to reach out anytime you’ll need assistance with anything else. :)
Sorry to keep repeating myself😅.
How should I describe the start date of the job posting?
I would like to specify the date it was posted.
To confirm, are you asking how to retrieve the date?
If so, you can use the get_the_date() function.
Reference: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_date/
For instance: "' . get_the_date( 'Y-m-d' ) . '"
Hope this clarifies. :)
Thank you!
How did you check the script you just mentioned?
I would like to find the error myself👍
