Approving companies
When auto-approve is off, company profiles that employers create wait in the approval queue until you approve them. Use it to check that a company is genuine before it appears on your board.
Open the approval queue
Section titled “Open the approval queue”Go to WP Job Portal → Approvals → Companies. The page is titled Companies waiting for approval.
WP Job Portal → Approvals on its own lists everything waiting, of every kind, under Everything waiting. To find a company, type in Search by name or who sent it and select Search.
Approve or reject a company
Section titled “Approve or reject a company”Point at the company’s row to show its actions.
- To check the profile first, select the company name or Edit.
- Select Approve or Reject.
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| Approve | The company becomes Approved and moves to the companies list. The employer gets the Company Status email |
| Reject | The company becomes Rejected and moves to the companies list. The employer gets the Company Status email |
To approve a company you rejected, edit it in Companies and set Status to Approved.
The emails are set up in Emails → Templates → Company Status. See Email templates.
Delete companies from the queue
Section titled “Delete companies from the queue”Each row on the Companies tab also has Delete. It works as in the companies list and refuses if the company has jobs. To delete several, tick them and select Delete in the bar that appears. See Managing companies.
Turn auto-approve on or off
Section titled “Turn auto-approve on or off”- Go to WP Job Portal → Settings and open the Companies tab.
- Under Company Settings, set Company Auto Approve.
- Select Save Changes.
With Company Auto Approve on, new companies are approved as soon as they’re saved and never reach the queue. Companies you add yourself in wp-admin use the Status you pick on the form.
