[Resolved] Job Listing with Application Website

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user wanted to display the parent name on the child post form.

Solution:
This is possible if the form was clicked to from the parent post itself. This means that the parent ID will be present in the URL, so you will have a url parameter similar to this.
parent_job_id=3073

Now to get this to display the parent title you need to use the shortcode.

[wpv-post-title id='[wpv-search-term param='parent_job_id']']

This should display the parent title on the child post form.

Hello,

I am creating a website that is listing available open jobs. In the view and the content template, I need to link to a CRED form that will display the name of the job being applied for.

I have been going through documentation on Child Post relationships but I am having trouble wrapping my head around what seems to be a simple task.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jason,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Are you clicking to the child post form from the parent ? Please let me know because the parent ID is passed in the URL and we should be able to display the title from that.

Could you let me know the URL parameter that is being sent with the parent ID.

Thanks,
Shane
