Hi,

I am an indeed afflilate and I want to be able to set up a jobs page on my WP site just like this one.

But I don't know how to do it. I created a new page in WP and was able to configure the top part (the what and where searches) but I want to have jobs streaming in all of the time.

Can anyone assist me with this?

Much appreciated.

    Go to this page on their site: Create Free Jobroll | Indeed.com Enter in the parameters, click Create Your Jobroll button and then insert the generated code into the html tab of your WP page.

    Now that's just what I found searching the indeed.com site; if you are an affiliate for them, they may have a similar tool inside their affiliate area and then the code generated should be tagged to you.

    When you say add that code into my the html tab of my WP, I am under the perhaps mistaken impression that I should not be adding anything to the WP editor or I will seriously mess it up. Is that true? I am using the twenty eleven theme. Thank you for your help.

    Create a new page called jobs - or name it whatever you want. When you create the page, you'll see two tabs - one called Visual and one called HTML - click the html tab and paste in the code given to you by indeed.com. Publish your page and now view your page on the web and you should see the jobs from indeed.com showing on your new page.

      The 'indeed.com API web service' by Bryan Nielsen is excellent. The trick is how to get the results to blend in with the rest of your site.

      The Indeed stylesheet itself is important because that's what formats the listings. However, it's kind of ugly IMHO.

      To change the font, border color, and background color of the incoming listings you need to force your custom styles to override the ones coming in from the default stylesheet.

      What I've done is overriden the default stylesheet from Indeed.com with the !important attribute in my theme's stylesheet.

      Example for those not familiar with this:

      .indeedresult {
      float:left;
      clear:left;
      width:100%;
      background:#f0f0f0 !important;
      margin-bottom:20px !important;
      margin-top:10px !important;
      padding:4px !important;
      border:1px solid #D9D9D9 !important;
      }
