Hire Documentation
Job listings, applications and a hiring pipeline
Installation
Requirements, install, what a fresh install creates, and the one setting to choose first.
Jobs
Jobs are elements — statuses, closing dates, openings, salary, addresses and how to apply.
Specifications and filtering
Groups are project config, terms are content — and why filters are OR within a group, AND across.
The application form
Built-in fields, questions of your own, server-side validation and CV uploads.
Applications and the pipeline
Applications are elements; stages say what they mean; every move is recorded.
Emails
The confirmation, the team notification, per-stage letters, and why they are queued.
Templating
The one-line careers page, your own markup, job pages, the apply form and structured data.
JSON endpoint
/hire/jobs.json — the same results the built-in listing shows, for a front end of your own.
Spam and privacy
Defences that cost an applicant nothing, uploads checked twice, and a retention policy that deletes.
Console commands
Expiry, counters, export, retention and resending mail.
Events
Refuse an application, push one to your HR system, or react to a stage change.
Configuration
Every setting, which screen it is on, and the defaults a fresh install starts with.
Permissions
Publishing adverts and reading applications are separate permissions, on purpose.
Editions
Lite is a working careers page with no caps on jobs or applications. Pro is the tracking half.
Troubleshooting
Forms that won't take a CV, emails that don't arrive, jobs that won't close, and empty listings.
FAQ
How Hire compares to a WordPress job board, and the questions worth asking first.
