Apqrinu Job Board is a lightweight, dependency-free job board plugin. It registers a “Job” post type with four taxonomies (job type, work mode, experience level, location), a clean archive with AJAX filtering and pagination, related-jobs pagination on single jobs, a built-in AJAX apply form (with optional resume upload), and JobPosting JSON-LD for SEO.

<li>Applications stored as a private post type for easy review.</li>
<li>JobPosting JSON-LD on single job pages.</li>

</ul>
<h4>Shortcodes</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>[apqrinu_listings]</code> — full listings with filters and pagination.</li>
<li><code>[apqrinu_related job_id="123"]</code> — related jobs (defaults to current single job).</li>
<li><code>[apqrinu_apply_form job_id="123"]</code> — apply form for the given job.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Theme overrides</h4>
Copy any file from <code>wp-content/plugins/apqrinu-job-board/templates/</code> to <code>wp-content/themes/your-theme/apqrinu-job-board/</code> to override it. For example: <code>apqrinu-job-board/parts/job-card.php</code>.
<h3>Privacy</h3>
When a visitor submits the built-in apply form, Apqrinu Job Board stores the following data on this site:
<ul>
<li>Applicant name, email address, phone number (optional), and cover letter message — saved as private posts of the <code>apqrinu_application</code> custom post type, visible only to administrators.</li>
<li>Resume file (optional) — uploaded to the WordPress Media Library and attached to the application record.</li>
<li>Submitter IP address — saved with each application for spam moderation purposes.</li>
</ul>
In addition, an email notification containing the same data (and the resume as an attachment, when provided) is sent to the address configured under Jobs → Settings → Default applications email, or to the per-job override email if set, falling back to the site administrator email.
The plugin does not send any data to third-party services, does not load remote scripts or fonts, and does not set tracking cookies. Application records and uploaded resumes can be deleted at any time from Jobs → Applications, and uninstalling the plugin removes all stored applications, plugin options, and orphaned job meta (see <code>uninstall.php</code>).
If your site is subject to GDPR, CCPA, or similar regulations, you are responsible for adding an appropriate disclosure to your privacy policy and for honoring deletion / export requests for the data above.
