I need to integrate BuddyPress and a job board. What job board plugin do you think should I use?

Will GD work well with BP and a job board plugin?

I am using WPJobBoard (http://wpjobboard.net/) and am moving to Avada mainly because GD will be compatible with it. The directory part of the site will be last though as I need to ensure the job board and then BuddyPress part of the site work properly in the way I need them to work and GD is not fully compatible with Avada yet.

That may change once I integrate GD into the site but currently I am using a standalone plugin.

I narrowed down my choices to either Job Roller or WPjobboard and it looks like the latter is the way to go since JR may not work with BuddyPress.

Do you think it’s better to use a non-GD theme or child theme like Avada in the long run?

My site is essentially an information source for progressive lawyers and the job board and community aspects as well as the blog are essential features of the site. The directory is important but not as important as the job board part so I am using a non-GD specific theme. Stiofan is apparently rewriting the CSS and certain other parts of the plugin so it will play better with well written themes so that is even more of a reason to stick to a non-GD theme if your site is going to be anything other than a directory.

Avada has all I need (and more!) and you can turn off what you don’t use so that is why I am going with that. Eventually I can see myself hiring a developer to better integrate the various functions of my site so that paying for a listing on the job board and directory are not handled separately but for now this will do.

WPJobBoard is a great plugin and the developer is very much like Stiofan and Paolo in that he is constantly updating and improving his product and is very responsive to the community so I highly recommend it. I have learned the hard way that going with freebie plugins leaves you vulnerable when the developer walks. As I am not a developer I prefer to pay for my code.

I think I read on another thread or perhaps on the WP.org thread that Stiofan and Paolo have plans to have industry-specific (e.g., real estate) plugins for GD. Perhaps we should both request a job board with all the features of WP Jobboard.

I just hired a part-time developer based in the Philippines and he will start on June 5th. He will be working for me for 20 hours a week since he is currently employed. Any advice you can share?

BTW, have a nice holiday weekend!

If they could integrate a job board with GD that would be cool but this project is dragging along enough as it is so I am using best of breed now so I can get things going.

And thanks!

Any updates for BuddyPress integration in GD?

Is there a plan to make a job board add-on for GD or are we advised to use one of the following?

http://wordpress.org/plugins/job-board/
http://wp-jobmanager.com/
http://wpjobboard.net/
http://wpjobmanager.com/

Any thoughts? Any case studies?

Best regards,
Dylan Robertson
