JobRoller Version 1.9.0

On April 17th, 2019, JobRoller 1.9.0 was released. This is a major release with significant changes, performance improvements, new Geo module implementation, and bug fixes.

Upgrade Information

First of all make sure you’ve done full site back-up (files and database), in case that something goes wrong.

Use the AppThemes Updater Plugin to automatically update the theme. Under “Appearance” => “Themes”, you’ll see an upgrade link next to Vantage. If you don’t, check back later. The AppThemes upgrade check API runs twice a day. It’s important to note that using this auto updater will overwrite any custom coding done to the theme. Customers who have made theme code changes will need to manually upgrade instead.

If you prefer the old fashion way or have made core theme modifications (which is not recommended), visit AppThemes to download the full version.

If you’re using a child theme or plugins purchased from our MarketPlace, we strongly recommend you contact the seller to make sure it’s been updated to work with this version BEFORE upgrading your website.

If you’re using your own customized child theme or plugin you’ll need to update your files to mirror the new changes in 1.9.0. A breakdown of tickets can be found below.

Once the theme has been updated, visit the admin dashboard. You will see the start of the Upgrade procedure which will convert old geodata for all existing listings.

Configure new Geo Services according to instruction and the theme is ready for use!
