Getting Started

We assume that you have the latest version of Joomla site ready. Please follow the steps below.

Step 1: Install JoomBri Careers

Once your Joomla site is ready, install the JoomBri Careers package by following the installation guide.

Step 2: Install Template

We frequently see our members posting in our forum that after installing the package (step 1), the site doesn't look like your JoomBri Careers Demo site.

JoomBri Careers is just a component and it doesn't include any template. The template we have used in our demo site is JB Blossom based on yootheme.com Warp Framework.

After installing the template, set it as the default template in Extensions → Templates.

Step 3: Create Menus

To create menu items, follow Create Menu Link. The below table shows the list of menu items created in our demo site.

Menu Title Menu Item Type Parent Item Other Options
Home Articles → Featured Articles Menu Item Root  
For Jobseekers Text Separator Menu Item Root  
Search Jobs Jobs - List and Search For Jobseekers  
List all Employers User - List All Users For Jobseekers  User Group: Employer
For Employers Text Separator Menu Item Root  
List all Jobseekers User - List All Users For Employers  User Group: Jobseeker
Post Jobs Jobs - Post New Jobs For Employers  
Dashboard User - Dashboard Menu Item Root Access: Registered
Register Careers Home Menu Item Root  

Step 4: Position Modules

When you install the package, all the required modules will be installed but will not be published automatically. You need to publish and position them to your liking.
Title Type Position Menu Assignment Other Options
Latest Jobs Careers Jobs top-b Home
