Form
General
WP Job Openings PRO allows you to replace the existing or in-built job application form with the form generated by external plugins such as Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, etc. You can add the shortcode generated by these plugins by selecting 'Custom Form' as the 'Default form for new openings' from WP Job Openings Settings > Form > General > Application form options. The above option is also available under each job. So, if you have created a job and published it, it will be given preference instead of a global setting.
If you use a custom form using this feature, then the applicants' data will not be accessible for the plugin. Applications will be handled by the form plugin you are using.
