Hi there, I’ve just installed FXtender Pro and was expecting to see a login/register with Linkdin option. Is this part of the plugin??
I can see there’s an ‘apply with linkdin’ option.
Thanks
@ironbit, FXtender’s LinkedIn features do not include social login with Linkedin. FXtender provides ‘Apply with LinkedIn’ and LinkedIn profiles features.
Please use FXtender’s forum for any additional support questions.
Hi,
Why Fxtender Pro doesn’t update/upgrade on wordpress dashboard like Jobroller does using apptheme updater plugin ?
@james, that feature was implemented in FXtender 1.4. Future releases will be update-able from the dashboard.
That’s great. Thank you.
Hi
We purchased the plugin specifically for the resume upload feature which works great.
I see that the plugin comes with a variety of gateways which we don’t need as we had to develop our own plugin. When we get to the check out stage of the Job Submission we get a message at the bottom of the page “Please choose your preferred payment gateway below:” and Paypal is in the box.
How do we switch this off / get rid of this so that it does not display on the page? I know we can do this with CSS but we want to switch this off completely.
Thanks
Carl, if you are developing your own plugin for the payments you can simply disable the payments. To disable PayPal, just delete the PayPal email address from your JobRoller gateway settings page.
If you have any other support questions please post them on the dedicated forum.
Thanks

Hi Bruno,
It seems to me looking at the screenschots of FXtender Pro (no demo logins available?) that both the job-poster as well as the candidates are able to upload/attach their own files (cv, job description), such as PDF and DOC, are the texts inside these files indexable and searchable (within the application/site, so I don’t mean Google)?
Thanks, Michel.
Michel, you can login on the demo site with demo users (displayed on the sidebar).
No, CV files are not searchable from within the application.
