Application messages contain most of JobMount job board’s texts. You can easily change most wordage you see on the job board using this feature.
1. Navigate in admin to
Settings: Application messages
2. You can browse through pages of default application messages and edit the ones you want.
NOTE: make sure you don’t modify the “key” field. You can make changes to “text” field only.
3. If you see some text, phrase, wordage, etc. on your job board site that you would like to change, but don’t know how – it may be that this text can be found and edited in the Application messages. Just copy the text and perform a search.
For example, you want to change the text “Your next great opportunity” that is a default tagline on the home page:
a) Go to Application messages in admin;
b) Type your next great opportunity in the keyword search field and click Search;
c) Now you can change the text to something else, for example “What job are you looking for today?“. Click the Save button for changes to take effect.
Notes
It’s recommended not to delete any of the existing application messages. If you see redundant texts that you don’t want to have on your site, contact your account manager for assistance.
